Little Fresh Pond Shoreline Restoration and Drainage Improvement Project

Goal: Upgrade the existing Perimeter Road and place overhead utilities underground

The Perimeter Road along Little Fresh Pond was regraded and moved slightly so that  a 3-foot-wide stabilized aggregate jogging path could be included along the Reservoir.  The new chain link fence used to protect the Reservoir is slightly lower than the previous fence, and the bottom rail has been raised to accommodate for the passage of turtles and other wildlife.   Overhead electrical and telephone wires have been replaced with an underground utility conduit that has been created beneath the Perimeter Road, allowing the City to remove the poles along the pathway.
