In the first phase of the project, two all-purpose fields will be built on the Concord-Carlisle High School campus.
These fields will be used by both high school students and by the community sports programs in the evenings and weekends.
These new fields, located behind CCHS (and outside of the footprint of any potential new High School building) will be accessible via a new access road that will be built near the school bus depot. Parking for 100 vehicles will be provided adjacent to the ne2w fields. In the future, a third all-purpose grass field may also be constructed on the site of an undersized practice field.
Two All-Purpose Turf Fields at CCHS Campus
Lighting: Advanced "state-of-the-art" lighting fixtures allow for field use during the evening - providing much greater flexibility for both CCHS and town programs.
Light "spill" is minimal - just a few feet from the edge of the field.
The design preserves most of the woodlands around the fields, retains the cross country trail and provides a 100' wide "wildlife corrider" between the fields and the property line. Small earthen burms, along with landscaping, will help mitigate visual and sound impact from vehicular traffic
