Tryon Creek Bridge.

Fought and Company Restores Native Fish Habitat with Tryon Creek Bridge.

Portland, Oregon

The City of Portland, Bureau of Environmental Services in an effort to restore native fish habitat initiated the Boones Ferry road culvert project. The old Boones Ferry road and undersized culvert were removed, and five new steel bridge girders spanning approximately 124 feet were put in place. Natural habitat such as logs and large rocks will be installed providing a path for cutthroat and rainbow trout to move freely upstream. The bridge will also provide safe passage for pedestrians and wildlife to cross below along a newly constructed path. This will help remove one of the major obstacles completing the Hillsdale to Lake Oswego trail. Watch a You Tube video produced by Portland BES to learn more here.

Fought and Company, was selected by MJ Hughes, the general contractor, to fabricate the steel bridge girders and cross bracing - approximately 140 tons total. Fought is excited to be a part of this restoration project, soon to be a win for the environment, animals, pedestrians, and vehicles.
