Workers prepare form for concrete pour of Hamilton Avenue Bridge’s eastern pier.

Workers place sections of box culvert to carry Beaver Pond Brook under future I-84. Openings at the top will be in the future median to allow natural light to filter into stream habitat.

Openings on culvert top to allow natural light to filter into the stream habitat from future center median.

Beaver Pond Brook relocated to flow through the southern portion of new two-chambered culvert (center) under future I-84, east of Harpers Ferry Road and north of Reidville Drive; East Mountain Brook enters from new culvert (at left).

Some fish were carefully relocated manually as part of the streambed relocation operation.
