Raised Boardwalk

 

A boardwalk - what a great idea! We have been contemplating this move since 2001 and are still in the process of combining many different grants and programs to make it a reality. Two programs we have been working with include the Civil Engineering and Carpentry programs at Bates Technical College. We have also been working with the City of Tacoma, Metro Parks, and WDFW's Urban Wildlife Biologist program.

 

When this project is completed, all of the trails in the Puget Gardens area of the Gulch will have a raised boardwalk in order to further protect the wetlands, while providing equal access for all to these areas. The Bates students are consulting with Dordahl & Associates and McGranahan's Architects in order to make this dream come true.
