Graded roadway with a dip - however - WAIT at least 2 more years to "do" anything - we tend to be an impatient society and in this case - patience is - IMHO - essential.
Proceed with caution any more irrigation in the nature preserve.
Leave the nature preserve ALONE.

Reroute the road through the preserve for reasons of cost, long term durability and to best serve the community.
