VANCOUVER – Clark County Public Works is improving a 1.44-mile segment of Southeast Blair Road north of Washougal. Construction-related traffic impacts will begin in July.
The project includes:
- Repaving the roadway
- Removing and reconstructing approximately 200 feet of deteriorating roadway
- Improving the banking (tilt) at select curves to improve handling and safety
- Replacing existing guardrail at designated locations
- Upgrading bridge rail on the bridge carrying Southeast Blair Road over the Little Washougal River
- Replacing all roadway signage
To reconstruct a 200-foot section of the road between Southeast Krohn and Washougal River roads, the road must fully close to through traffic between early July and the end of August. Access will be maintained for properties located within the closure area. Through traffic will be directed onto a detour route. Emergency vehicle access will also be maintained during construction. Closure start and end dates are approximate and subject to change.
Project information and updates are available at clark.wa.gov/public-works/southeast-blair-road.
