Our feature project was designed by Watershed Protection Department engineers and constructed by our Field Operations crews. A sharp bend in the creek caused severe undermining of a 25-foot tall bluff adjacent to South 6th Street. The roadway and several large live oaks were on the verge of collapsing into the creek. The foundation is laid first.
Crews install limestone boulder armor and geo-cell lifts.
The Geo-grid is installed and backfilled with crushed rock. Geo-cells are filled with soil. Stacked armor stone is completed. Geo-cell lifts continued. Geo-cells are planted with native vegetation.
