The alignment of the Milroy bypass (SR0332, Sections B01 and B02) crosses limestone and dolomite formations. Geotechnical investigations during the project design phase identified areas of high potential for sinkhole activity. In July and August, 1997, drainage ditches in the sinkhole prone areas of Section B01 were lined with impermeable geosynthetic clay liners to prevent the infiltration of surface water, a prime cause of sinkhole development. This report evaluates the constructability and performance of this lining method in the prevention of sinkholes within the project drainage system. The study will continue for 18 months after the completion of the installation.
