VANCOUVER – Travelers who use Interstate 5 in northern Clark County, should plan for delays.
On Friday, June 27, the Washington State Department of Transportation maintenance crews will inspect and work on the light pole within the median near the Northeast 179th Street on-ramp to northbound I-5, in Vancouver.
Light poles along the highway and within interchanges help drivers see the road at night and during bad weather, making travel safer by improving visibility and helping prevent crashes.
What to expect
- Friday, June 27: The left lane of northbound I-5 will close between Northeast 139th Street (milepost 8.5) and the Northeast 179th Street on-ramp (milepost 10.0) from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Travelers are reminded to slow down, stay focused and follow directional signs within the work zone.
