The closure will be from Monday, September 15 through Friday, September 19, between 8:30 a.m. and 6 p.m. daily
The city of Washougal, in coordination with contractor Stacy and Witbeck, will temporarily close the southbound lane of 32nd Street at the railroad tracks between Evergreen Way and B Street from Monday, September 15 through Friday, September 19, between 8:30 a.m. and 6 p.m. daily. The closure is necessary to support geotechnical and survey work for the upcoming 32nd Street Rail Crossing Project.
Crews will be conducting borings and survey activities adjacent to the railroad tracks to help advance the project’s design. A signed detour will be in place to guide traffic around the closure.

We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we work to improve infrastructure and safety in our community.
