This project will deliver a new pumping station and pressurized pipe to convey wastewater flow from the City of Belmont to Charlotte Water’s (CLTWater) Stowe Regional Wastewater Reclamation Facility via CLTWater’s Paw Creek Pumping Station. This project will allow the existing Belmont Wastewater Treatment Plant to be decommissioned and eliminate the need for costly improvements at this facility. Due to separate funding sources, the project will be delivered via Design-Bid-Build delivery method through two phases of design and three separate construction contracts.

An extension of McCullough Drive, from it’s current terminus east
of southeast of North Tryon Street, to the disconnected terminus
southwest of W.T. Harris Blvd. It is already designed and real
estate acquired. This is necessary for splitting this project apart
from the McCullough Streetscape Project. Length = 0.272 miles

This project will deliver a new lift station and force main to convey wastewater flow from the City of Belmont to Charlotte Water’s (CLTWater) Stowe Regional WWRF via CLTWater’s Paw Creek Pump Station. This project will allow the existing Belmont Wastewater Treatment Plant to be decommissioned and eliminate the need for costly improvements at This facility. Due to separate funding sources, the project will be delivered via Design-Bid-Build delivery method through two phases of Design and three separate construction contracts.

The Matheson to Craighead segment of the Cross Charlotte Trail will implement a 14-foot shared use path beginning at E 36th Street. The path will continue down Cullman Ave and board walk up into a pedestrian bridge spanning the Norfolk Southern Railroad tracks utilizing a prefabricated structure within railroad right of way. The structure will then connect to the existing trail built by Brand Properties within the Kaleido Noda apartment complex.

July 2025 Update: This project will not go out for public bid; it is now being designed and constructed through a reimbursement agreement with a private developer. 

Firehouse 44 will be an integral asset to support Charlotte Fire Department’s efficient response to emergencies in the community; providing a location within the newly developed River District community and expanding their response area in this newly incorporated region of Charlotte. This 14,600 SF, two-story, 3-bay facility will be the first mass timber firehouse in the Southeast US and will meet Living Future’s (LF) Zero Carbon certification for total project embodied carbon. The project will comply with Charlotte’s Sustainable Facilities Policy and fully support the sophisticated and time-sensitive operations of the Fire Department.

A 12’ wide shared-use path will be installed along WT Harris Blvd, from JW Clay Blvd to N Tryon St. This includes pedestrian ramps, storm drain services, and new pavement markings in addition to the shared-use path.  Project Length = 0.33 miles.

This project will connect sidewalk along Kuykendall Road from
Thorn Blade Drive to McKee Road, and add a right-turn lane from
Kuykendall Road on to McKee Road in order to to increase
pedestrian safety and help alleviate traffic congestion at the
intersection. Project will also fill in small sidewalk gap on the south
side of McKee Rd at Kuykendall Rd and add pedestrian signals with
crosswalk at this intersection. Project length = approximately 0.75
miles.

The scope of this project will include 0.34 miles of new 6ft wide concrete sidewalk, driveway improvements, and wheelchair ramps on Lawyers Rd from Chestnut Lake Dr to Harri Ann Dr.

This is an intersection project which will involve installing a new traffic signal with pedestrian signals, widening some of the approaches, replacing all curb ramps, mill & overlay, and pavement markings. The traffic signal will use steel strain poles.

This Project will install 270 LF of proposed 12′ wide multi-use-path, curb ramps, crosswalks across NC 49, Pedestrian concrete island, milling/resurfacing, storm drainage and pedestrian hybrid beacon with mast arms near the intersection of University Blvd and Mark Twain Road. This project will also install pedestrian crossings, wheelchair ramps, traffic signals milling/resurfacing and storm drainage system at the intersection of University City Blvd and Suther Rd.91347

This project is bordered by Highway I-85 to the north, Cinderella Road to the south, Echo Glen Road to the east, and West Sugar Creek Road to the west.  The drainage system consists of open channel and closed pipe systems underneath city-maintained roads.  This was previously identified as a major capital project from the watershed ranking prioritization process, scoring 73 of 100.  The ranking protocol identifies 18 structures that experience flooding in the 100-year storm event and 7 roads that experience transverse overtopping events that do not meet current standards.  The entire neighborhood has received a patchwork of repairs over the years and a holistic project is needed to cost beneficially address the drainage system issues.
