Beginning at 9 p.m. each night Monday, Nov. 18 to Thursday, Nov. 21 to 5 a.m. each following morning, SR 305 at Sam Snyder Creek will see one-way alternating traffic. This will allow crews to install drainage beneath the roadway.
Project overview
This project will remove two existing 270-foot-long, 36-inch-diameter concrete pipe culverts on State Route 305 outside of Poulsbo at the Sam Snyder Creek crossing and replace them with a single 239-foot-long steel girder bridge. General work activities include: clearing and grubbing, earthwork structure installation, paving, stream profile realignment and streambed restoration.
What to expect
Construction crews have set girders for part of the new bridge over Sam Snyder Creek. Traffic is now on a bypass bridge that will take travelers around the work zone. Traffic will be in this configuration until March of 2025.
Crews will tear up the roadway, remove the culverts and complete the remainder of the in-water work. Girder setting for the second half of the bridge is currently scheduled for December 2024. The entire project is expected to be complete in the spring of 2025.
This project is located just north and west of NE Totten Road/Lemolo Shore Drive NE.
A fish barrier underneath State Route 305 outside of Poulsbo will be replaced with a girder bridge.
