Poverty Point Road Dirt, Gravel and Low Volume Road Project

Poverty Point Road is surrounded by fields and is at a low point in topography. Stormwater was trapped in the road corridor, compromising the road surface. In order to address these stormwater issues, existing culverts were replaced, new culverts were installed and approximately 500-feet of underdrain was constructed. The existing asphalt surface road on Poverty Point Road in Wilmington Township was milled and a specialized Driving Surface Aggregate (DSA) was placed as part of this Lawrence County Conservation District Dirt and Gravel Road Program.
