Federal Boulevard De-Channelization and Trail Project
The Federal Boulevard De-channelization and Trail Project includes the construction of a multi-purpose trail and restoration of the adjacent Chollas Creek to its original habitat with new native trees and plants. A concrete retaining wall will be installed, 8,000 native plants will be planted along the creek slope, and 298 native trees with irrigation will be planted along the project trail.
The development of this important trail segment will augment recreational spaces, and connect communities to the emerging Chollas Creek Watershed Regional Park. The creek de-channelization effort that is part of this project will remove impervious surfaces and vegetation overgrowth in the Chollas Creek channel thereby improving surface water quality and reducing high volume surface run-off.
