Traffic Control Stones (TCS) sized about 3 ft by 3 ft by 4 ft, dug into the bed & bank, designed to stabilize & roughen the bank, are spaced 3 to 6 ft apart. Every 4th TCS is keyed into the bank & has a Single Stone Bendway Weir attached. 8 SSBW total Traffic Control Stones (TCS) with Single Stone Bendway Weirs (SSBW) & vegged keys & pole plantings Key TCS Key TCS SSBW TCS SSBW Key Thalweg Key
