Mountain Highway Landscaping 2019/2020
Due to heavy rainfall and saturated ground conditions, there were locations within the project where the top soil had slipped. Once the ground conditions were dry enough and less rain was forecasted, the affected areas were redressed and landscaped accordingly under the construction contract 1 year warranty. It is important to note that the slopes were inspected and determined to be in stable condition.
