Westerly Creek Channel Restoration, Stapleton
Matrix was the engineer of record for the design an
d construction of channel restoration for an 8,000-foot reach of Westerly Creek.
Westerly Creek was previously in a culvert beneath the runways of the former airport, and a new open channel and floodplain were constructed in its place for flood control and as a park amenity for this new 3700-acre mixed-use development. Unique bioengineering methods were implemented to stabilize the channel. The 80-acre creek site included an extensive regional trail network within the Park land.
