Walking trails in the Crooks’ Hollow Conservation Area will be closed to the public starting Dec. 19 until the fall of 2012, which the Hamilton Conservation Authority says is a conservative estimate.
The closure will permit the HCA to remove the 95-year-old Crooks’ Hollow dam and then restore Spencer Creek into a more natural channel while rehabilitating plant life and fish habitat.
A new pedestrian bridge crossing the creek will replace the path over the old dam when the project is completed.
