Port Orchard, WA - NW Newberry Hill Road is now expected to reopen November 3, 2024. This follows a thorough assessment by the engineer and designer of the retaining wall that revealed the damage is more severe than initially thought. Significant structural damage was sustained, following the vandalism of equipment and the construction site. Crews will need to excavate beneath the damaged retaining wall, requiring substantial reconstruction. Additionally, the extended lead time for necessary materials has contributed to the delay.
The Kitsap County Sheriff's Office continues to investigate the incident of first-degree malicious mischief that occurred on August 23, 2024, at the culvert construction site on NW Newberry Hill Rd. and Sesame St. NW. Anyone with information leading to a suspect is asked to call 911 or Detective Dekorte at 360-337-5614.
