The West Modesto neighborhood is in for some exciting changes as Stanislaus County supervisors have approved a sweeping infrastructure project that aims to elevate the Colorado-Rouse area. Slated to cost nearly $27 million, this project will add much-needed sidewalks, storm drains, and sewer mains that the neighborhood currently lacks. These upgrades will bring it in line with nearby areas, leveling the playing field for residents.
With only $1.7 million still needed to complete the funding, county officials are on a mission to secure that last piece of the financial puzzle. It’s a significant investment for the community, and locals are likely buzzing with anticipation. Who wouldn’t want smoother sidewalks and efficient drainage to kickstart their neighborhood’s glow-up?
Soon enough, West Modesto will no longer just be a place you drive through—it’s about to become a vibrant community known for its charming streets and functional infrastructure. It’s a step in the right direction, giving residents the amenities they deserve. After all, no one wants to live in a neighborhood full of potholes and hidden storm drains!
