Lighting Along Timber Lagging Wall

Trenching for the electrical conduit for the timber lagging wall has been completed. The conduit has been installed behind the wall and is being backfilled. The conduit will provide power for the 17 light boxes that have been notched in the timber wall, 30 inches above the trail every 30 feet, for the length of the wall down to the Arana Creek causeway.

Multi-Use Trail Construction

Pervious concrete has been poured at the intersection at the harbor dry storage yard. The intersection will be re-opened after the concrete has cured. The construction fencing will be removed and pulled back up the hill to it's original location. Grading around the intersection will commence to make the paths accessible to all sides. Final grading is proceeding along both sides of the trail along the hill portion and the upper flat sections in preparation for hydroseeding.
