The trail on the west side was frequently under water: will this be improved?

The trails on the west are raised by this project and will be constructed to reduce the frequency and duration of flooding on park trails during/after large rainstorms. Additionally, the project removed the boardwalk trail east of the dam and converted it to gravel. During the summer of 2017, the bridge near the Hansen Park shelter experienced flooding and this structure and adjacent trails will be raised in 2018 prior to completion of the project.
