Construction of the recreation enhancement feature and terracing. RiverRestoration.org was onsite to perform survey and test the performance of the feature. Colorado River works constructed the project.The Town of Frisco desired to modify existing in-channel structures for river recreation enhancements. RiverRestoration.org’s detailed design services and technical support proved to be the successful approach for Frisco. A high level of coordination between CDOW, CDOT, and landowners was required. Services included surveying, conceptual design, permitting, final design, plans and specifications, construction bid package, and construction monitoring. Construction was successfully completed in August, 2007.
