Migrating birds are already returning to Circle B Bar Reserve, but it will be a bit longer before nature lovers can hike the popular Alligator Alley trail beyond the gazebo on Lake Hancock.

After the work is approved, restoration work will take at least three months, possibly longer depending on rainfall.
