Site work for a bridge / tunnel in Kenmore, Washington. Conceptual plans call for site work for a bridge / tunnel.

To mitigate stream impacts identified m the City's 68Th AVE NE Pedestrian and Bicycle Improvement Project (68Th Project), the City is replacing four existing driveway culverts on Blueberry Creek (identified as fish passage barriers) with fish passable culverts. This mitigation will improve fish habitat and fish access. Blueberry Creek is a tributary to Swamp Creek and flows into the City from Snohomish County along 61st PL NE. The creek heads south on 62nd AVE NE and east along NE 202nd St before meeting with Swamp Creek just north of Wallace Swamp Creek Park. Blueberry Creek is identified as a Type F stream and represents accessible habitat for coho salmon and cutthroat trout, but not for Endangered Species Act (ESA) listed species The project is required to be completed before the expiration of the 68th Project's Hydraulic Project Approval (HPA) in March 2025 The City plans to begin design no later than 2022 and complete construction no later than 2024.
