The NW Reeder Road Bridge over Dairy Creek was constructed in 2018 as part of a multi-agency cooperative effort to restore Dairy Creek and reopen the connection between Sturgeon Lake and the Columbia River. The old culvert was replaced with a bridge having a larger channel opening, allowing for maintenance of the creek bed, widening the road for cyclists and installing a water quality facility to treat runoff.
