Venneford Ranch Rd & Green Meadows Dr Storm Sewer Repair – posted Feb. 19, 2026
Douglas County will be conducting storm sewer repair work on Venneford Ranch Road at Green Meadows Drive, on Tuesday, Feb. 24 through Tuesday, March 3, 2026. Venneford Ranch Road will be reduced to one lane with flaggers during business hours. We are not anticipating impacts to Green Meadows Drive, but this will be confirmed once the damaged pipe section location is exposed. There will be minimal delays. Venneford Ranch Road is expected to be opened back up each night for the traveling public at 6 p.m. If you have any questions, please reach out to Debbie Kula at [email protected]
