Sunnyside is undergoing a major flood resiliency upgrade, while at the same time improving the area’s pathways and landscape. This is the first phase in the preliminary works before the majority of work gets underway in 2025. Wilco installed 400 meters of sheet pile flood wall, vibrated 5 meters below grade into the hard rocky soils alongside Memorial Drive. The location here is challenging; working under and around mature trees, alongside a busy commuter roadway, and around major infrastructure utilities below grade. Wilco’s Movax SG80VA vibratory unit mounted on a CAT 335 is a great addition to our fleet, providing power combined with versatility and maneuverability in tight spaces. Future phases of this project will carry on downstream from the Poppy Plaza area, raising the ‘banks’ by 4-5 feet or so, and providing Sunnyside and Memorial Drive with protection from high water events.
