Does this affect the American River Ride? Don’t we need to go up
the Cardiac Bypass? I may have the wrong section in mind, but if someone knows
this please advise as I was planning to ride from Maidu
to Rattlesnake Bar tomorrow.
Thanks,
Kathy
From the Auburn Journal:
Trails remain closed for pump station project work
Wednesday, April 11, 2007
As contractors continue
with phase two of the pump station project at the Auburn
dam site along the AmericanRiver,
trails in the area remain closed.
"All trails in the dam site have been closed," said Scott Liske, ranger with the Auburn State Recreation Area.
"The Auburn to Cool crossing
and Cardiac Bypass trail will be closed seven days a week, 24 hours a
day."
Construction crews are excavating and constructing an intake structure
for the pump station to return the river to its natural channel, officials
said.
Hikers and dog walkers in the area are putting themselves at risk when using
the trails, Liske said.
"The easiest and safest way to complete the project is to keep the public
out," he said. "Through October all trails in the dam site will be
closed."
