EF 2024-25 · 2024-06-12
Résumé
The project will rehabilitate and increase the resiliency of an approximately 200m long section of Whitesands creek by replacing 2 damaged culverts of approximately 30 m in length to withstand a major water event, increase water quality to the community and allow for fish passage.
The project will stabilize the stream banks by adding gabions and a variety of plants based on root structure and bank stabilization strength; wildlife habitat and food source quality; contribution to canopy cover and cultural significance. They will add design elements such as a viewing deck which will strengthen the connection between the creek, children’s playground and open spaces and will also install educational signage.

Description (French)
Le projet permettra de réhabiliter et d'augmenter la résilience d'une section d'environ 200 m de long du ruisseau Whitesands en remplaçant 2 ponceaux endommagés d'environ 30 m de long pour résister à un événement aquatique majeur, améliorer la qualité de l'eau pour la communauté et permettre le passage des poissons.
Le projet stabilisera les berges des cours d'eau en ajoutant des gabions et une variété de plantes basées sur la structure des racines et la force de stabilisation des berges ; la qualité de l'habitat faunique et des sources de nourriture ; contribution au couvert forestier et importance culturelle. Ils ajouteront des éléments de conception tels qu'une terrasse d'observation qui renforcera le lien entre le ruisseau, l'aire de jeux pour enfants et les espaces ouverts et installeront également une signalisation éducative.
