The construction has begun for the 5 Soon to be Pad Ready Sites within Riverstone Technology Park. A Pad Ready site means that the site has been cleared, grubbed, and the mass grading has been completed. Only final grading will be necessary to begin construction on a building.

This project will improve the immediate availability of sites to build on, thus improving the competitiveness of Halifax County.  The pad ready and infrastructure ready sites will position Halifax County with sites ready to build on and increase Halifax County’s chances of success of meeting prospects’ needs by reducing the location timeline.  Being able to get time sensitive projects underway without excessive development or unnecessary unknowns is crucial for winning projects.

Also, to be completed in the Riverstone Project is the engineering for the 115kv Electrical Line extension to be brought to Riverstone Technology Park and design of the 34.5 kv loop for within the park. This will reduce the timing to make infrastructure readily available to all sites within the park. This again will make Halifax County poised for a new industry looking to locate.
