This project will build sidewalk, curb and gutter, and storm drainage improvements in the Ponderosa neighborhood. This project will coordinate with the existing sidewalk project on Markland and Wedgefield.
What's happened? Planning and design are complete. Click here to view the concept plan. The Real Estate Phase is 99% complete. The team has completed a downstream analysis and is working to get a temporary construction easement from the downstream property. Norfolk Southern Railroad has approved our encroachment to replace the culvert under the railroad.
What's next? Once the temporary construction easement is acquired, the project will go out to bid. The easement should be acquired by the end of the summer. The bid phase could take up to 6 months, and then construction would begin.

Content1 This project will provide various infrastructure improvements (sidewalk, curb & gutter, drainage, etc.) in the Ponderosa neighborhood. The project's boundaries are West Boulevard, a Norfolk-Southern RR line, Seymour Drive and the rear property lines of parcels on the east side of Kenhill Drive. In the voter-approved 2006 bonds, $400,000 was included for Planning & Design for the Ponderosa neighborhood project. In November 2008, voters approved another bond package which contained $1,900,000 to be used to construct the Ponderosa NIP project. This project also involves coordination with storm drainage projects.
Details:
- Sidewalk is proposed on Fordwood, Denview, Parkmont, Markland and Wedgefield.
- Drainage improvements are proposed throughout the neighborhood with a concentration on the system from Markland to Mayfair between Wedgefield and Fordwood.
- Dense street trees are proposed on Markland between Parkmont and Elkmont to deter speeding.
- Resurfacing is proposed for Danlow, Wedgefield and a portion of Markland between Wedgefield and Fordwood.
- A pedestrian access path is proposed between Kenhill and Mayfair to provide access to Wingate Park.
