Join us for a free webinar to learn how municipalities can use the Long Island Sound Crossing Prioritization Tool to prioritize road-stream crossings (culverts and bridges) for ecological, infrastructure, and community resilience benefits.
The tool helps communities plan improvements that restore habitat for diadromous fishes, strengthen infrastructure against climate change, and keep communities connected. Save the Sound staff will provide a brief overview of the larger project behind the tool and lead a live demonstration showing how it can be applied in the watershed.
Developed by Save the Sound in partnership with Seatuck Environmental Association and The Nature Conservancy, the Long Island Sound Crossing Prioritization Tool was built by CivicMapper and is hosted on ArcGIS Online. It is intended to be a resource for municipalities, especially parts of municipal government that make infrastructure or environmental decisions for their communities, by making it easier to apply for grant funding. We also hope the tool will be a useful resource for agency partners and fellow environmental organizations working to accelerate river restoration and protect communities from climate change.
This project was made possible with support from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and seed funding from The Alexander Center for Ecological Action.

About Save the Sound
Save the Sound leads environmental action across the Long Island Sound region in New York and Connecticut. We fight climate change, save endangered lands, protect the Sound and its rivers, and work with nature to restore ecosystems. You can support our work by making a donation when you register for this event.
What makes us unique among regional nonprofits is the breadth of our toolkit and results. We work in many ways, from legislative advocacy and legal action to engineering, environmental monitoring, and hands-on volunteer efforts. Together, we restore and protect all that impacts the Long Island Sound region’s environment, from rivers and shorelines to wetlands and forests, from the air we breathe to the waters of the Sound itself. For over 50 years we’ve been ensuring people and wildlife can enjoy the healthy, clean, and thriving environment they deserve—today and for generations to come.
