Construction Activities Jan. 1 - Jan. 7

Happy New Year!

After a week off for the Christmas holiday, construction has resumed this week. Fortunately good weather continues to prevail allowing for good progress on exposed dirt sections without worry of erosion. The focus this week has been on the timber lagging wall along the harbor access road.

Timber Lagging Wall at Harbor Access Road

Pile installation began this week and the majority of piles have been set. Crews will begin placing the timber lagging between the piles on Thursday and Friday. The timber lagging is a series of 12x12 pressure treated timber beams stacked in a horizontal configuration between the steel I-beam piles. The completed retaining wall will be permanent and will provide the necessary shoring of the hillside for the Multi-Use Trail Construction.
