Project Highlights

-River piers were constructed using a coffer dam in late November and early December.
-Constructed a path and installed 8400 LF of 10 ft wide colored concrete bike path along the Roaring Fork River.
-Boulder walls were constructed along the path as well as grouted rock walls in more elaborate landscaped areas.
-Topsoil from excavation activities was salvaged, screened, and reused during final stabilization.
