This month’s workplan has us replacing the bridge at the intersection of the Gilbert Road Parking Lot and the 24 Gun Trail. We will first remove the old bridge than build a new bridge in its place. If we have time at the end we will add a berm going across the trail coming from the parking lot to the bridge and trim the bushes on both sides of the bidge.
