Beginning Monday, WSDOT bridge crews will seal the driving surfaces of three bridges on SR 14 in Clark County. When it rains, water seeps into small cracks in the concrete
CLARK COUNTY – Travelers who use State Route 14 in Clark County should plan for lane closures and delays.
Beginning Monday, Aug. 4, the Washington State Department of Transportation bridge crews will seal the driving surfaces of three bridges on SR 14 in Clark County. When it rains, water seeps into small cracks in the concrete. In freezing temperatures, that water freezes and expands, making the cracks bigger and damaging the driving surface. Sealing the surface helps keep the water out, protects the bridge and extends its lifespan.
What to expect
Monday, Aug. 4:
- Travelers will take turns moving through one lane, directed by flaggers, in both directions of the 6th Avenue Bridge over SR 14 at milepost 12.6, from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Tuesday, Aug. 5:
- Travelers will take turns moving through one lane, directed by flaggers, in both directions of the Ellsworth Bridge over SR14 at milepost 5.6, from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Wednesday, Aug. 6 and Thursday, Aug. 7:
- Travelers will take turns moving through one lane, directed by flaggers, in both directions of SR 14 at the Evergreen Railroad Bridge (milepost 18.8), daily from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Drivers should slow down, stay alert, and follow signs and flaggers direction during the sealing work.
