Gabion cages

In February, Dallas Water Utilities (DWU) responded to a broken water line that runs along White Rock Creek. While DWU was able to complete leak repairs fairly quickly, site restoration has proven to be a complicated process. Their team has completed the engineering required for reconstructing the creek bank and will be mobilizing at the site again on October 3. This phase of the project entails the installation of 150 linear feet of gabion baskets like the ones pictured above along the White Rock Creek embankment and restoring the turf and trail damaged during the water line repair.  The work is scheduled to be completed in February 2023.

During this construction period, portions of the street will be reduced to traffic for a short period of time to install the gabion walls. DWU has pledged to do everything possible to minimize the construction disruption to this area, but there may be some inconvenience as work progresses.

DWU is working closely with our Parks and Recreation and Public Works and Engineering Departments to ensure that the work adheres to Addison's high standards.
