To complete this work, the bridge, a section of trail and the upper parking lot at Moulton Falls Regional Park will be closed beginning July 8
VANCOUVER – Clark County Public Works, Parks and Lands is coordinating a project to repair and preserve the iconic wooden arch bridge at Moulton Falls Regional Park. The work, to be performed by a contractor, will include minor repairs to maintain the bridge’s structural integrity and refinishing the wood stain to protect the structure from weathering.
To complete this work, the bridge, a section of trail and the upper parking lot at Moulton Falls Regional Park will be closed beginning July 8. These areas will remain closed for several months, until the project is completed. Currently, completion is anticipated in September, but the construction schedule is weather dependent and subject to change. Updates to the project will be posted at https://clark.wa.gov/public-works/moulton-falls-regional-park. Construction must be completed during the dry season, and was scheduled to keep the park accessible during the Independence Day holiday weekend and reopen for viewing of fall color and spawning salmon.
While other areas of the park will remain open during construction, including the lower parking lot, trails to Big Tree Creek falls and the Hantwick trail (up to the bridge), parking will be extremely limited. Visitors are encouraged to have an alternative plan for their visit if no parking is available, as no parking is allowed on Lucia Falls Road. Parking on the road creates dangerous conditions for drivers and park users. Vehicles parked on the road or in the road right of way are subject to ticketing and towing. Alternatives include nearby Lucia Falls Regional Park (which does not have water access) and Lewisville Regional Park.
