Description

The Washington Department of Natural Resources will use this grant to replace two dilapidated bridges in the Mount Si Natural Resources Conservation Area. The two bridges are on the Mount Si Trail and Francis North interpretive trail, which are at the trail head. The interpretive trail is closed to the public because of the unsafe bridge. The two bridges were built about 15 years ago with natural wood stringers. They are rotten and the bridges are on the verge of collapsing. The Mount Si trails are a popular destination being 30-minute drive from 3.3 million people. The department will contribute $8,471 in labor and agency appropriations. This was the top ranked project of 13 projects competing for funding in the state lands development category of the Washington Wildlife and Recreation Program.
