PROJECT PURPOSE
This segment of the Capital Cascade Trail project is characterized by adjacent industrial and commercial uses and limited or non-existent Right-of-Way on the north to a more rural character on the south. Although the goals for this segment are consistent with the others, Segment 4 provides an increased opportunity to enhance the water quality of the Central Drainage Ditch basin prior to discharge into Lake Henrietta and Lake Munson. This segment is unique due to its ability to provide the improved water quality through the creation and restoration of wetlands along with the development of a nature park that could provide a learning center for the community.
PROJECT LIMITS
Segment 4 is the Central Drainage Ditch segment which begins near the intersection of Lake Bradford Road and Gamble Street (at the confluence of the St. Augustine Branch and the Central Drainage Ditch) and extends south along the Central Drainage Ditch to its confluence with Munson Slough.
PROJECT MAP
The attached concept was endorsed by the Intergovernmental Agency Board in 2005. Final Stormwater modeling and concept development efforts on this segment began in mid - 2008. The project will be coordinated with the FAMU Way Extension currently underway by the City of Tallahassee.
