This project’s extensive scope encompassed various activities ranging from wetland construction to roadway rehabilitation, spanning from the Lenhartsville Bridge to the Berks/Lehigh County line. Key components included excavation, micrograding, soil testing and amendments for wetland creation, landscaping, and the installation of infrastructure elements including culverts, fences, gates, level spreaders and erosion control measures. Additionally, Rutledge Excavating undertook the provision and placement of vegetation, including trees, shrubs, and grasses all protected with deer and goose fence as well as turtle basking structures all to support ecological restoration efforts.
This project holds significant importance as it addresses environmental concerns while concurrently enhancing transportation infrastructure. The incorporation of wetland creation and restoration measures aims to mitigate the impact of roadway construction on natural habitats and wildlife.
