Sullivan Bridge Project Launch and Sullivan Park Improvements Dedication

 

The City of Spokane Valley invites you to join them in launching the start of the Sullivan Road West Bridge Replacement project! You'll also be able to see the newly expanded park grounds and new picnic shelter. RSVP required. Click here  for more information. 

 

The project is expected to be completed by fall 2016. The tail end of the project includes development of new river access. Further, Spokane Conservation District will implement a riverbank restoration project adjacent to the river access by spring 2017. Said Andy Dunau, the Forum's Executive Director, "The river access and restoration projects going on in the Valley are making it a destination attraction."
