In early 2021, heavy rains and strong winds caused fallen trees in Johnson Creek to damage the culvert supporting the road on Hideaway Court, in the Damascus and Boring areas. A temporary bridge is in use until the culvert can be replaced.
The culvert will be replaced with a bottomless culvert to allow for safe fish passage.
