Rip-rap (rocks), large excavator and equipment on River Rd at work presently stationed near old Antioch Church.
Last year’s high water in the river impacted the western shoreline as the river flow proceeded towards McAlpine Bridge and the channel to the south.
Work, apprently began on Monday,  with the primary focus on the shoreline near the church. Many loads of rip-rap placed adjacent to the river to shore up the western side.
With a build up of gravel in the river the flood plain appears to be rising and some flooding in ALR land nearby is expected during the freshet.
