WGI was selected to provide surveying, engineering design, permitting, public involvement assistance, bond assistance, and construction engineering services for the Saddle Trail Park (South) Neighborhood Improvement Project. Saddle Trail Park is part of Wellington’s Equestrian Preserve area and presented unique obstacles to the design and construction. The project’s key components included paving existing shell rock roads, constructing new equestrian bridle trails, and constructing approximately 17,500 LF of new 8-inch public water mains, fire hydrants, driveway connections, and drainage system reconstruction. Funding for the improvements was provided through the proceeds of Infrastructure Improvement Bonds, with repayment accomplished through annual assessments pursuant to Chapter 170 of the Florida Statutes.
