Proposed South Embankment

The existing condition of the southern embankment is rather haphazard and there hardly remains any structural integrity. Upon vegetation clearing, it is most likely that the embankment would simply be leveled.

A proposed location for the new southern embankment is at the existing southern roadway. Shown above, Bryse points to the location where the southern canal crosses the roadway.



Shown above, the roadway at one point, cuts right through the southern embankment. Bryse stands in the center of where the roadway cuts the southern embankment. The left berm is where the south embankment will continue and merge with the west embankment, while the right berm is the remaining portions of the southern embankment.

Construction would require elevating the roadway to the specified height to meet the same elevations as the west embankment, and abandoning the remaining existing southern embankment.
