The British Columbia Road Runner, June 1969, Volume 6, Number 2 THEB ITISH COLUMBIA JUNE, 1969 PBLI HED BY TH E DEPARTMENT OF HIGHWAYS OLUME 6, NUMB R 2 ROSSLAND DISTRICT CREWS WORK ALL NIGHT ON TRAIL FLOOD Determined efforts of the Rossland crews eventually restored Trail Creek to its chan­ nel after 15 hours of disastrous flooding at Trail in April. At 3.45 p.rn., Wednesday, April 23rd, the Trail Creek culvert intake plugged and over­ flow water began pouring down Rossland Q Avenue. It began as a trickle. In an hour the half-mile length of Rossland Avenue I was a surging river, racing knee-deep over the pavement, across the sidewalks, through the front yards and gardens, and even through living-rooms. The last mile of the creek actually runs under the city through a concrete culvert, and it was at the intake to the culvert where all the trouble began. Huge boulders, dis­ lodged by the extreme current, along with stumps and other debris were swept against the intake grizzly to clog the entrance. Between 8.45 and 11 p.m. Department crews blasted four holes through the Columbia River wall to allow the rampaging creek to escape into the river. At about the same time, Gorge Creek overflowed into the west section of the city, compounding the trouble. Continuous work through the night by the Rossland District crews brought about the control of the flood at 6.30 a.m ., Thursday, April 24th, diverting Trail Creek back into its original channel. The damage bill was in the millions. There were about 150 damaged homes, some of them destroyed; 77 private cars damaged, with 26 destroyed; one apartment building collapsed, a total wreck; and un­ told damage to streets and services . Some 30 business premises were heavily damaged and some wiped out.
