On Thursday, March 14 and again on Monday and Tuesday, WSDOT contractor, Tapani, Inc., will close the left westbound lane and all eastbound lanes of SR 14 at the Lieser Road overpass
VANCOUVER – Travelers who use State Route 14 through Vancouver in southern Clark County, should plan for three overnight closures.
On Thursday, March 14 and again on Monday, March 18 and Tuesday, March 19, the Washington State Department of Transportation’s contractor, Tapani, Inc., will close the left westbound lane and all eastbound lanes of SR 14 at the Lieser Road overpass, between mileposts 4.35 and 4.36, for repair work along the eastern end of the bridge.
Closing the lanes of the highway is necessary to ensure traveler safety, as the bridge work occurs directly above the travel lanes.
Closure details
- From 8 p.m., Thursday, March 14 until 6 a.m., Friday, March 15: Crews will fully close the eastbound lanes of SR 14 and detour all travelers to the Lieser Road off- and on-ramps at Exit 4, to detour around the closure. The left lane of westbound SR 14 will also close.
- From 8 p.m., Monday, March 18 until 6 a.m., Tuesday, March 19: Crews will fully close the eastbound lanes of SR 14 and detour all travelers to the Lieser Road off- and on-ramps at Exit 4, to detour around the closure. The left lane of westbound SR 14 will also close.
- From 8 p.m., Tuesday, March 19 until 6 a.m., Wednesday, March 20: Crews will fully close the eastbound lanes of SR 14 and detour all travelers to the Lieser Road off- and on-ramps at Exit 4, to detour around the closure. The left lane of westbound SR 14 will also close.
- Tuesday, March 19 to Friday, March 22: Travel lanes across the Lieser Road overpass will be reduced to a single northbound lane, around-the-clock, on the west side of the overpass.
Taking advantage of the full overnight closures of eastbound SR 14, crews will work to remove the existing bridge lane markings and install temporary lane striping along both directions of the Lieser Road overpass. This work requires the full closure of the bridge and travelers will need to use an alternate route. The striping work is weather dependent and may be rescheduled.
Travelers are reminded to slow down as they approach the work zone, follow directional detour signs and expect delays.
