Washout repair work

Fairfax Forest Reserve Road East was closed following a Feb. 6 washout of the road near Manley Moore Road East.

A geotechnical engineer assessed the damaged roadway Feb. 11 and provided a final report March 6. Utility relocation work was completed March 26.

The repair work started April 6. Crews excavated loose slide material and hauled it off-site. They then stabilized the area using rock fill and rebuilt the road surface. 

The road was paved May 7 and striped May 8.
