Project Information

Overview

Sauk Creek Greenway corridor shown from Tree Lane at Haen Family Park to Old Sauk Road and High Point road. A channel winds through the greenway. An existing sanitary access path goes from Tree Lane and Randolf north to Plover Cir, and around the pond off N High Point Rd. There are access points from Walnut Grove Park, Tree Lane and Randolf, and N High Point, and sidewalk access from Farmington Way, Brule Cir, and Gray Fox Trl.

This project began based on the need to stabilize the stormwater channel, and create maintenance access. This is still the primary goal of any future construction project. However, due to the size and complexity of this greenway and adjacent ponds, including additional considerations for trees, vegetation, public use, mobility and accessibility on public land, and based on the feedback that we received so far, we plan to re-start engagement with a broader approach. We are calling this broader approach a "Corridor Plan" because we are looking at the entire stormwater corridor. This includes the entire greenway (including the east-west section near Haen Family Park that wasn't in the original 2018 discussion), and the 2 adjacent, existing stormwater treatment ponds. Our first objective is to obtain community feedback on the greenway corridor as a whole, instead of as individual construction projects. Through this engagement process, we want to learn more about the community’s values and develop a conceptual plan for the corridor.  There is currently no design for any element of the corridor, and there will be multiple public meetings and opportunities to provide input on the corridor plan as it develops. The final corridor plan will serve as a framework for future planning and construction phases of the greenway. Each construction phase will have a separate public engagement process to discuss more detailed design elements. 

The corridor plan development will consist of a 7-step process where we plan to share information, and obtain input on specific aspects of the corridor.

Corridor Plan Development & Engagement

The components of the plan can be aggregated into 3 main areas—water, land and people and they are described below. There will be engagement opportunities within each step of the corridor plan.  

The major takeaways of the proposed engagement plan include: 

  • We will work together to develop a Corridor Plan 
    • The Corridor Plan will serve as a conceptual plan (not a design for construction) 
  • The Corridor Planning process will take more than 1 year 
  • This is a special engagement process developed based on what we heard from the community
  • The kick-off meeting is focused on understanding community values and goals, and sharing baseline information. Detailed conversations will occur once more information is available

In late September, 2023, the City presented the engagement plan to presidents of adjacent neighborhood associations, as well as, to leaders of the Friends of Sauk Creek to obtain feedback on the proposed plan. The engagement plan, explained in detail in the presentation below, explains the aspects of the corridor vision the community can shape, and the timeline for the development of the plan. You can view the presentation below and the notes from the Feedback and Q&A following the presentation.

Trees and vegetation provide other ecosystem services including:

  • Pollinator habitat 
  • Carbon storage 
  • Heath of residents 
  • Biodiversity 
  • Wildlife habitat
  • Urban canopy

Ecological assessment is underway.

Wildlife

The City works to mitigate impacts to wildlife through the design and construction process including: consulting with wildlife experts, prioritizing tree preservation, altering construction practices, and relocating wildlife in advance of construction where appropriate. 

The City works to improve wildlife habitat by considering ecological restoration in conjunction with stormwater construction projects.

People

The primary function of the corridor is for stormwater conveyance and treatment. However, as it is public land, we want to create as many co-benefits for people to access and utilize the corridor as well.  

Use

  • How is the corridor used? 
  • What does the community value? 
  • What goals should the corridor plan address?

Accessibility

  • How is the corridor an accessible public space for everyone to enjoy? 
  • Are there existing barriers that can be addressed with the corridor plan?

Mobility

The West Area Plan looked at bicycle and pedestrian transportation connections, including potential connections in and across the Sauk Creek Greenway.

The West Area Plan ultimately was adopted without a North-South multi-use path through the greenway, but did include the recommendation for an East-West connection across the greenway. You can learn more on the West Area Plan project webpage.    

Following the adoption of the plan, the City investigated the potential locations for an East-West path connection through the greenway, and found it did not overlap enough with the stormwater improvements to be included in the corridor plan. You can learn more in the October 22, 2024 Public Information Meeting Presentation with Polling Results presentation slides 54-63. The findings will be documented for consideration in the future.

For more information, please visit the People subpage.

Project Schedule 

The Corridor Plan process is anticipated to last through 2024. In early 2025, the City will begin identifying the design phasing for this section (the phasing will be determined later in the corridor planning process) and develop a preliminary design based on the corridor plan. The detailed engineering design, as well as public engagement and final permitting, will last at least 6-9 months. Therefore construction will not begin in the corridor until fall 2025 at the earliest. 

Public Involvement

There are a number of points of contact during this project where the public is encouraged to give feedback as part of public information meetings and City board and committee meetings. Dates and times are indicated below:

Also, please be aware that there is scheduled sanitary sewer cleaning for the sewer mains that run through the greenway that will be beginning shortly. The standard sanitary vactor truck will be cleaning the sanitary sewer and will be followed by a truck that will televise the pipes to assess their condition. In order to get the trucks safely over the crossing near Tree Lane, swamp mats will be temporarily placed in the crossing. This work will last approximately 2.5 weeks. Any encroachments in the greenway near the access path should be removed in advance of the maintenance so equipment can use the access path as needed. Please provide space to, and be respectful of City staff and equipment completing this important preventative maintenance.

Kick-off Meeting:

We are excited to announce the dates for the kick-off meetings of the Sauk Creek Corridor Plan. Due to the immense interest in the corridor, and to accommodate as many people as possible, the kick-off meeting will be held in both in-person and virtual formats on separate dates. The meetings will cover the same information, so you only need to attend one, but are welcome to attend both meetings.

The meetings will provide an overview of the three main aspects impacting the corridor—water, land and people, and will explain the corridor plan process so you know what to expect over the coming year. During this first meeting, we want to hear about your values, how you use the corridor, and your goals for the corridor plan. There will be an opportunity to share your input, as well as tell us what questions you’d like answered during the corridor plan process.

In-person: Monday, November 6 from 6:30-8:30pm at Vel Phillips Memorial High School, Wisconsin Neighborhood Center, Room 1210, 201 S Gammon Rd, Madison, WI 53717. Please enter at south entrance through the main doors, take a left, and room 1210 will be on your left. Please register for this meeting at this link on Eventbrite so we can make sure we have enough chairs and tables. There is no fee or ticket required to attend.

A virtual Public Information Meeting was held on Thursday, November 9 from 6:30-8:30pm via Zoom.
