WOODLAND – Travelers who use southbound Interstate 5 just north of Woodland, in Cowlitz County, need to plan ahead and expect overnight delays.
Beginning at 10 p.m., Monday, May 6, Washington State Department of Transportation’s contractor, Combined Construction, will close all southbound lanes of I-5 near the Dike Access Road Bridge at milepost 22, for emergency pavement repairs to the shoulder. Due to the age of the pavement and the increase in traffic, the recent traffic shifts have caused the pavement to fail.
Closure details:
- Beginning at 10 p.m., Monday, May 6 to 4 a.m., Tuesday, May 7: All southbound lanes of I-5 at Dike Access Road, will be closed for emergency pavement repair work.
During the closure, southbound interstate travelers will detour using the off- and on-ramps at Exit 22 for Dike Access Road. Please note that local access to Dike Access Road under the overpass, will be restricted.
Travelers are reminded to slow down as they approach the work zone, follow directional signs, have patience, and expect delays.
