Creek Stabilization Project has Begun – Nov 19, 2018

See photos below. This fence was a complete surprise to us, but there it is, from Meadowdale to the bridge closest to Baughmans.

As I understand the project, the work is done in sections. Water has to be diverted from a section of the creek through a pipe leading past the work area. That way the work is happening in a dry section of creek. The banks will be stabilized and barriers designed too slow the water flow will be added.

The path will remain open for walkers, bikers. Work must stop March 1. Hopefully they will be able to finish the work by then. Compared to the 2004 installation of the sewer line, this disruption is minor!

If you have questions, you can email me and I will try to find answers, or you can contact Jen Willoughby, City of Frederick.
