West Burlington Trailhead Park Bioretention Cell Project

planned

The City of West Burlington is installing a new bioretention cell at the future West Burlington Trailhead Park along a public trail corridor. The project will filter stormwater runoff from the park and nearby streets before it reaches Hawkeye Creek and ultimately the Mississippi River. The bioretention cell will serve as a visible example of how communities can use natural infrastructure to improve water quality while enhancing public spaces. The project also reflects West Burlington’s commitment to protecting Iowa’s water resources and investing in practical, innovative conservation solutions that provide lasting environmental benefits.
