Wildwood
Park Trail Rehabilitation
Location: Radford, Virginia
Project Description:
This project was for the reconstruction of
Wildwood Park in Radford, Virginia. We originally built this
trail in 2001 and this year it needed some work. We solved
some drainage issues and filled cribbing to bring the trail back up to
grade. We also built a small foot bridge to replace the
existing one that was in bad repair. There was some rerouting
around some very large stumps that had been blown down in a storm and
were precariously positioned on the trail that would have rolled down
the hill and caused damage to the trail below. Included was
also the replacement of some original cribbing that had been broken
when large trees fell and uprooted under or fell across them.
The original waterbars were still in place but were
completely filled behind so those were cleaned as well. Below are some pictures of the project as it is
being constructed. The pictures are thumbnails, click on them to view a
larger image. Be aware that most of the images are large file sizes and
need time to download.
