Braceridge Road Drainage Improvements Pop-Up Meeting

🗓 Date: Wednesday, April 29, 2026
⏰ Time: 5:00 p.m. – 6:00 p.m.

The City of Raleigh is hosting a pop-up public meeting focused on the Braceridge Road Drainage Improvements Project. This is a great opportunity for residents to connect directly with city staff, learn about proposed solutions, and provide input on a project that directly impacts the neighborhood.

Project Overview: Why It Matters

Flooding has become a recurring issue along Braceridge Road between Batiste Road and Sunridge Road. Currently:

  • Water from a bioretention area flows through multiple residential backyards
  • Runoff continues into the street
  • This results in yard flooding and street flooding, impacting nearby homes and safety

The City is working to identify effective drainage solutions to address these concerns and improve stormwater management in the area.

What to Expect at the Meeting

Residents and stakeholders attending the pop-up meeting can:

  • Learn about the proposed drainage improvements
  • Ask questions directly to City staff
  • Share feedback and local insights
  • Help shape solutions that impact the community

This informal, drop-in style meeting makes it easy for neighbors to participate and stay informed.

Why Community Participation Matters

City-led infrastructure projects are strongest when residents are involved. By attending, you can:

  • Ensure your voice is heard
  • Provide real-world context about flooding impacts
  • Help guide decisions that affect your neighborhood

If you live in or near the Braceridge Road area, your input is especially valuable.

Final Thoughts

Community engagement plays a vital role in shaping Raleigh’s growth and infrastructure improvements. Don’t miss this chance to connect with city leaders and contribute to a safer, more resilient neighborhood.
