Your call will be returned with more information. The St. Louis Metropolitan Sewer District is considering building a tunnel to help with flooding that occurs periodically near the intersection of Grand and Bates during heavy rainstorms. The idea for the south St. Louis project was originally turned down, but a new plan is more affordable. The 1.5-mile tunnel will run from the Grand and Bates area to the Mississippi River. The Holly Hills Improvement Association will continue to report on developments in the plan and will invite a representative of the Metropolitan Sewer District to discuss the problem and proposed solution at an upcoming meeting.
