How to add drainage in the red area?
Post Body
When it rains water floods this low area of grass. My first thought is to add a mound of dirt/mulch near the driveway with some shrubs to block the water.
Alternatively, could I dig a few deep holes (like 3' to 4' deep and maybe 1' to 2' wide), filled with gravel, and then add a grate of some sort at grass-level?

Make this a raingarden and enjoy the flowers all summer long.

Don't do any of this. Make this into a raingarden instead. Shunting the water to the road will only cause your grass to die more quickly when you hit a dry spell.
