A construction crew prepares support structures for a new elevated walkway that will link the historic railroad trestle to the Dungeness River Nature Center at Railroad Bridge Park in Sequim and the existing Olympic Discovery Trail. The work is part of a project to restore the floodplain of the Dungeness River while providing improved access to the plaza of the recently opened nature center. The new walkway will include a bypass span, providing a direct route for pedestrians and bicyclists using the trail. Work is expected to be completed this fall. (Keith Thorpe/Peninsula Daily News)
