BL Bulletin

Field Feature: Harbor Brook Ribbon Cutting

Jan 22, 2024

The completed Harbor Brook Channel Improvements project was celebrated in November with a ribbon cutting with the City of Meriden in Connecticut. We are proud to partner with the City to contribute multi-disciplinary support services that will help fundamentally change the landscape of Meriden along Harbor Brook from Cooper Street, southward to just downstream of Coe Avenue.

This $12M+ project aims to eliminate nearly fifty properties from the floodplain with many more properties experiencing reduced flooding potential because of this work. In addition, a new bike-pedestrian path, plantings, and attractive open brook channel will bring the City one step closer to linking the City center to the South Meriden center in a meaningful and inviting way. This project is an example of BL Companies’ versatility in providing our client with engineering, environmental, and survey services to help see this project from design to completion of construction.
