Road preservation work will begin in July to complete a chip seal asphalt layer, replace speed bumps, and restripe the roadway
VANCOUVER – Northeast Sunset Falls Road has been identified as a priority for road preservation treatments. The road provides access to recreation in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest.
Road preservation work will begin in July to complete a chip seal asphalt layer, replace speed bumps, and restripe the roadway. Drivers in the area can expect occasional lane closures, delays and traffic impacts. Access to Gifford-Pinchot National Forest and Sunset Falls Campground will remain open. Construction is scheduled to be completed by September.
Construction is weather-dependent, and the schedule is subject to change. Schedule updates and additional information is available on the project webpage at clark.wa.gov/public-works/northeast-sunset-falls-road-pavement-preservation.
For information about road and park projects, closures, opportunities for community input, and more, residents can follow Public Works on X (formerly known as Twitter), Facebook and Instagram and view information on Nextdoor.
