HANSVILLE — There’s once again a place for the public to park at Point No Point.

The new parking lots were completed June 13. The lots were closed April through the morning of June 13.

The lots were resurfaced with pervious concrete, which improves stormwater drainage. Stalls are also clearly marked.

During construction, blackberry bushes lining the parking lot near the wetlands were removed and replaced with native plants. With the raised parking lot and lower plants, visitors now have a better view of the wetlands, according to information from Kitsap Parks Project Coordinator Ric Catron.

A “bird screen” was installed on the fence closest to the wetlands, which will block vehicle headlights that could disturb wildlife. That screen will be removed once the native plants grow.

Work left to be done around the lot includes a new fence along the beach side of the road, and regrading of the Maggs House lawn. This work will not affect parking, according to Catron.

The parking lot project was completed one day after it was expected to be. In a previous interview, Catron said it was scheduled to be complete June 12.

The project didn’t proceed without its twists. On May 5, human remains were discovered under a juniper bush. The remains were taken by the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation for testing.
