B. Dry and Wet; Season Activities All demolition activities and some construction activities will take place only in the dry season, April 30 to October 1 annually, due to seasonal constraints of working in the riverbed. Therefore, it may take approximately two dry seasons to complete the new bridge. C. Detour for Overhead Construction Activities The bike trail along the river will remain open during both Phases 1 and 2. However, certain construction activities which would pose a hazard to bike trail uses, such as demolition of the existing bridge and erection of the precast girders for the new bridge, will require a temporary detour of the bike trail. During these activities, both northbound and southbound cyclists will have to exit prior to First Street at either McFadden Avenue or Fifth Street. Ill.
