Repair work is beginning on the damaged stormwater outlet, known to the District as “Pond 12,” which sits east of Monarch Blvd. where Happy Canyon Creek flows under a community trail. The repairs are necessary to prevent greater erosion, which could eventually lead to a complete loss of the trail.

During the construction, a portion of the trail system will be closed to the public and a detour will be put in place. The detour will safely reroute foot or bicycle traffic to the west of the pond and back onto the path. The District expects to finish the project in late June of 2016, in time for heavier summer use of the trail. Please be aware of construction traffic in the area and stay behind the protective construction fencing for your safety and protection.
