The City of Centennial and the Southeast Metro Stormwater Authority (SEMSWA) are partnering to care for the trees along the High Line Canal. This work will help keep the tree canopy healthy, safe, and resilient for the future.
Beginning end of September/early October, crews will trim and maintain trees in the Centennial section of the Canal. This work will:
- Improve stormwater flow and reduce flood risk
- Address declining Eastern Cottonwoods
- Enhance safety along the trail
- Support ecological restoration and long-term management
- Prepare the Canal for its evolving role as a sustainable stormwater resource
This collaborative effort includes Arapahoe County Open Spaces, the City of Centennial, SEMSWA, South Suburban Park and Recreation District (SSPRD), the High Line Canal Conservancy, and the community. Funding for this project is provided by Arapahoe County Open Spaces.
