Rosalia Trestle work may finish June 23

ROSALIA - Crews working on the Rosalia Trestle restoration project expect to finish around June 23.

Motorists on Rosalia Road should expect delays of up to 20 minutes between Pine City-Malden Road and U.S. Highway 195.

Traffic delays are necessary to allow Rock Supremacy crews to apply Shotcrete to damaged areas of the trestle.

Shotcrete is a spray-on concrete that fills in cracks and holes.

Once the Shotcrete finishes, height-restriction signs are being posted on the span.

Rock Supremacy, of Bend, Ore., was the low bidder on the $100,000 project, officials said.

Washington State Parks manages the trestle as part of the Palouse to Cascades State Park Trail, also known as the John Wayne Pioneer Trail.

The trail runs 285 miles across Eastern Washington, connecting Snoqualmie Pass on the west to Tekoa.
