Bear Branch Tributary Phase II - Stream Restoration

This project will restore approximately 2,300 linear feet of natural stream and stabilize the steep, eroded stream banks along Bear Branch Tributary from Cottage Street, SW downstream to I-66.  This stretch of stream runs parallel to Walker Street, SW.  The completed project will reduce sedimentation and improve the stream's water quality using natural channel design techniques.
