The North Dock Overpass opened on Thursday, September 16th! The overpass allows pedestrians to safely cross the railroad tracks and reach a section of the Puget Sound shoreline that has never been open to public access.

Pierce County received partial funding from grants from the State of Washington's Community Trade and Economic Development Department (CTED) and the Recreation and Conservation Office (RCO).

Future plans include the construction of a new overwater structure and removal of the dock that served the former gravel mine. Like all projects at the Chambers Creek Properties, planning is done with close attention to environmental impact. The overwater structure will have a smaller footprint than the existing dock and cast a smaller shadow over the water. The new dock will also use a significantly fewer number of pilings. These types of design features ensure that the Properties will remain a wonderful showcase of Puget Sound's natural beauty for generations to come.
