Leavenworth Completes 2011 Flood Cleanup
LEAVENWORTH, Kan. (AP) The city of Leavenworth has taken down the last of the temporary fences put up at city parks during last year's flooding on the Missouri River.
Crews removed the last of the barriers Wednesday and reopened the walkway along Landing Park. The quarter-mile stretch of riverside parkway had been at least partially closed since June, when the Missouri began flowing out of its banks. Other flood-related repairs and renovations at Leavenworth parks are complete, and the city expects to open the Riverfront Park Campground as scheduled on April 1.
