New Culvert Opens Fish Passage in Tumwater | Seattle News
Description
Big fish, big change: Tumwater just installed a massive 19-foot-wide, 60-foot-long culvert under Sapp Road to help salmon and trout swim freely again—replacing an old barrier that blocked their path. Crews even moved fish downstream during construction and added natural streambed material to make the new passage feel like home. While the creek will be back to normal by late August, Sapp Road remains closed between Crosby Blvd and RW Johnson Blvd as crews rebuild the road and install retaining walls. Funded by over $2 million in state grants and city dollars, this eco-friendly upgrade is a major win for local wildlife.
