re: Can anyone estimate the cost of converting a ditch to culverts?

It depends some ditches require 18" culverts while others require 48". Obviously there is a difference in cost.
There is a HUGE difference in cost once you step up to 18" and 24" culverts.
Just for reference on Black Corrugated pipe:
15" Pipe - $9-$10/ft
18" Pipe - $12-$14/ft
24" Pipe - $18-$21/ft
Typically your drainage board will have a map of the area with drainage requirements. You should get this information through the permitting process.
Our parish will set the pipe or driveway culverts for $20/ft if you supply the pipe. They supply the labor and the dirt.
Our neighborhood requires a drain box every 80'... they add some significant cost to the project.

If you can get the parish to install them for you, call Coastal Culverts in Eunice (337-546-6887) and ask for Karen. They deal in Nyoplast boxes also (much cheaper than concrete catch basins). You will save some money by going to get them, but they will deliver if necessary.
