Description

UMaine engineering students are partnering with the town of Orono to develop proposals to improve parking, increase water access, and stabilize paths at Webster Park. The project focuses on strengthening stormwater drainage, increasing accessibility, and protecting the riverfront park from erosion and sediment deposition into the Stillwater River, which is an Atlantic Salmon habitat. The team prioritizes bioengineered solutions such as native plantings, rain gardens, and use of local materials to mitigate flooding and erosion while maintaining the park's natural character.
