Abrams Park Bridge Closure

By Leave a Comment

Vehicle access to Abrams Park is closed for bridge repairs. Division St is closed to vehicle traffic east of N 5th Ave. The bridge will reopen on Saturday morning, May 21. Pedestrian access to the park remains open. This closure is temporary and the City is working to complete the necessary repairs and restore access as quickly as possible.

The City is working directly with the Little League and soccer club to provide alternative transportation to the park for scheduled sporting events during the closure. For more information, please contact the Parks and Recreation Manager at 360-887-6010.

Park visitors may park in public parking lots at Union Ridge Elementary School and the Ridgefield Administrative and Civic Center or along public streets and walk into the park. All park users should be mindful of parking in surrounding neighborhoods and avoid blocking driveways or residences. Please utilize walking trails and carpool as much as possible
The City has directly contacted affected property owners who use the bridge to access their homes to arrange alternative access.
