Tender Details

The approximately five-acre Walter Kelley Park was established in 2009 in conjunction with the adjacent main station of the Middlesex Fire Department. The Park was established for public use, with the intention that it would host a river access. While users of the Park often access the adjacent Winooski River for recreation, there does not currently exist a formal river access point and recreational users blaze trails down the hill to the river as needed, at times disturbing the bank and contributing to erosion.

The Walter Kelley Park would be the only good river access for the residents of Middlesex. The proposed project will focus on infrastructure improvements to the access area and reducing environmental impacts on the shoreline of the Winooski River. Infrastructure improvements include stairs/ramps for access to the water for fis...
