The City of Bartlesville has teamed up with KSL Dirtworks for a creative solution to help make a portion of the city's paved trail system safer.  A small portion of Pathfinder Parkway, located behind Bartlesville Ready Mix on Tuxedo Blvd. just west of Caney River, has been closed to accommodate a riverbank stabilization project currently underway in the area. 

Director of Engineering Micah Seemers said that drainage across the path has eroded the bank, causing the bank to collapse in some places and creating hazardous conditions for anyone using the trail.  It's anticipated the portion of the path will be closed for several weeks.
