VTrans Molly’s Falls Brook Relocation

Cabot and Danville, Vermont

The Cabot-Danville US Route 2 highway safety improvements project required 200-ft of Molly’s Falls Brook to be relocated. Extensive stakeholder coordination began at site inspection, with representatives from Vermont’s Agency of Transportation and Department of Fish & Wildlife. DuBois & King formulated a conceptual design and met with the Vermont River Management Program. Professional services included:

Data collection and analysis
Design of a new channel
Preparation of a topographic basemap
Documentation of the existing channel
