Seabeck Highway
(at the Big Beef bridge, between Pioneer Rd. and Seabeck Hwy.)
A routine inspection of the Seabeck Highway NW bridge at Big Beef Creek discovered damage to the west abutment. This damage was the result of heavy rains and extreme tides. Damage to the abutment has left the roadway unsafe for pedestrian or vehicular travel.
Quigg Brothers, Inc. the contractor, continues cleaning up debris beneath and around the west pile cap, and begins scour repairs Friday (2/5), over the weekend, and into next week.
At this point, the repairs are projected to be complete by Friday February 12th.

South Central Force Main Replacement Project

Fairgrounds Road is closed during the day to all but local traffic (7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.) between its intersections at Central Valley and Tanbark Drive. Traffic is detoured on Central Valley, to McWilliams Road, to Old Military Road, and back to Fairgrounds Road. This phase of the work continues through the first week of March, but could be extended due to inclement weather delays.

Waaga Way Road Extension Project-NW Greaves Way (Central Kitsap)
(from Old Frontier Road)
The Contractor is focused on repair of settlement issues surrounding the Stormwater detention system located at the Old Frontier end of the project. The detention system consists of 8 ft diameter barrels buried beneath the new lanes of travel. The contractor is sealing the detention barrels from the inside and can only do so when weather permits. During heavy rainfall, the barrels are full of stormwater. Once the tanks are sealed, the Contractor will repair settled areas within the new roadway. The remaining portions of the project are weather dependent so the opening of the roadway to traffic is delayed until a clear weather window allows for completion of the project.
