- Click on the map to learn which species of fish are present at a particular site and view more photos.
- Turn different layers on and off to know where different boundaries are located
- Use the measure tool to understand how close or far apart sites are.
- Click the “In Design” layers on to view projects completed or programmed for completion over the next few years.
- Open in a separate browser tab for the full interactive map experience.

Our progress correcting barriers
As of June 2022, we completed 379 fish passage barrier corrections statewide. This improved access to approximately 1,301 miles of upstream habitat for fish. Of the 379 statewide corrections, WSDOT corrected fifteen fish passage barriers last year, fourteen of which were in the injunction area, opening 98 miles of stream habitat.
Learn more about our progress identifying and correcting fish passage barriers, and related activities, in our 2022 WSDOT Fish Passage Performance Report (PDF 8.8MB).

Carry chains, practice before leaving
Requiring chains keeps traffic moving during storms rather than closing a pass or roadway.
