The structure, replacing a set of bottleneck-creating culverts, is one of four projects the nonprofit Huron Pines says will improve fish passage in the Thunder Bay River watershed. The four bridges planned to span Gilchrist Creek and nearby Hunt Creek — two of the coldest and clearest trout tributaries of the Thunder Bay River watershed — are designed to give fish access to upstream habitat while also enhancing road safety, according to Huron Pines, which is managing the projects.
