Nighttime interchange closure this weekend; All ramps open by 5 a.m. Saturday
Sorry for the confusion, folks. We have a correction for the ramp closures that are happening this weekend. One ramp, the ramp connecting I-5 northbound to I-84 eastbound, will close this Friday night for flood testing. It will be closed from 10 p.m. Friday night through 5 a.m. Saturday morning. The flood testing for the other ramps will happen at a later date. Flood testing is an essential part of the bridge renovation process that ensures the ramp joints will not leak in the event of rain.
Thank you for your patience as we put the finishing touches on this project. We'll continue to provide periodic updates as work is completed.
