Washington State Department of Transportation maintenance crews will close the right lane of the North Fork Lewis River Bridge to repair a hole
WOODLAND – People who use northbound Interstate 5 near Woodland will need to plan ahead for significant morning and afternoon delays during bridge repair work this week.
On Thursday (April 20) Washington State Department of Transportation maintenance crews will close the right lane of the North Fork Lewis River Bridge to repair a hole.
