PRINCE GEORGE – The City will be applying for funding to help mitigate bank erosion along the Nechako River as part of revitalizing the Heritage River trail system.
The system has been seriously damaged through flooding. The bank at the Kiwanis Park west of the boat launched has been eroded by at least 10 metres. The hope is to add riprap at two locations along the trail. The first would be at the Kiwanis Park site and the other would be further upriver near Brink Forest Products.
The City is looking for $750,000 dollars from the Community Emergency Preparedness Fund, administered by the Union of BC Municipalities.
