About the project
Our team improved, repaired, and provided erosion control for a neighborhood stream for the city of Richardson and a private homeowner. Our engineers improved a section of the stream directly downstream of an existing box culvert and included erosion remediation to an existing concrete retaining wall, replacement of failing culvert wing walls, low-flow channelization, and slope stabilization of an active erosion zone. During project design, the city of Richardson and the private homeowner asked to include a pedestrian bridge spanning the stream, which was added to the project.
