Culvert Construction Temporarily Shifts State Route 3 in Belfair (Washington State Department of Transportation)

(BELFAIR, WA) – Temporary changes are coming to a section of State Route 3 in Belfair. Beginning the morning of Tuesday, June 14, drivers will notice lanes realigned on a temporarily-widened portion of the highway near Romance Hill. The changes will allow crews to replace a culvert under the highway. Subsequent lane shifts will be needed as the work progresses.

The new culvert will provide improved fish passage and help reduce the risk of flooding during storms.

The work is related to the SR 3 Belfair Area Widening and Safety Improvements project.

Real-time traveler information is available from the WSDOT app and by following the WSDOT regional Twitter feed. Advance information is available from the Olympic Region Weekly Construction and Traffic Updates web pages.
