The gist
According to city documents, Perennial Drive does not have a drainage system, which causes excessive water to flood onto the roadway. Though the area lacks drainage, the street and sidewalks are in good condition.
Construction will include two 12-foot lanes, nine-foot shoulders and four-foot sidewalks. The project will run along approximately 0.2 miles of Perennial Drive from Heimer Road to Dutch Myrtle Drive.
Proposed improvements include:
- Underground storm sewer and curb inlets
- Low impact design drainage feature
- Resurfacing and restring roadway pavement
- Base street and curb repairs where needed
- Build sidewalks and driveways that are compliant with Americans with Disabilities Act
- Replace sidewalk panels that are out of compliance
The project is currently in the design phase with construction expected to begin in summer 2025 and complete by summer 2026.
