Erosion work to close part of loop trail March 31-April 4
Chelan County PUD
News Release
3/26/2008
A portion of the Apple Capital Loop Trail near the Linden Tree area in Walla Walla Point Park will be rerouted March 31 through April 4 because of work to prevent erosion.
PUD contractor Rayfield Brothers will repair a water channel to the river to prevent further bank erosion from rain and irrigation water.
Trail users will be rerouted from the Linden Tree area parking lot, onto Walla Walla Street, and to the Walla Walla Point Park entrance, during the project. From the north, the closure will begin near the Lindston Barn. Cones and signs will alert trail users to the temporary change.
The trail will be closed from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. each day. A portion of the parking lot will be used for staging and will also be closed to the public.
Park users will also see more truck traffic than usual, and are asked to use extra care.
