CLARK COUNTY – Travelers who use Interstate 5 in northern Clark County should use an alternate exit to reach Battle Ground.
On Tuesday, March 3, the Washington State Department of Transportation maintenance crew will close the off-ramp from southbound I-5 to eastbound Exit 11 for State Route 502/Battle Ground. During the closure, crews will repair guardrails, patch potholes, clear storm drains and sweep the road.
Guardrails help prevent vehicles from leaving the road or crossing into oncoming traffic during a crash. Patching potholes makes the road smoother and helps prevent more damage. Clearing storm drains reduces standing water on the road that can cause drivers to hydroplane. Sweeping removes debris that could damage vehicles. Together, this work makes travel safer and more reliable for everyone.
What to expect
- Tuesday, March 3: The off-ramp from southbound I-5 to eastbound Exit 11 for SR 502/Battle Ground will close from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
- During the off-ramp closure, travelers will need to use an alternate route.
For everyone’s safety, please slow down, stay focused, and expect delays near the work zone.
