US Coast Guard officials are asking the public to provide input on a Washington State Department of Transportation proposal to build a replacement bridge across Kilisut Harbor in Jefferson County.
The transportation agency wants to take out the current bridge, which consists of two culverts and causeway, and put in a new non-moveable bridge made of four, 110-foot long spans and supported by three bents. For more information visit www.navcen.uscg.gov/D13BN.
To weigh in on the project, contact the bridge administrator Steve Fischer via email at steven.m.fischer3@uscg.mil or call 206-220-7282 by no later than Oct. 31.
