On Thursday (Sept. 11), WSDOT maintenance crews will repair damaged guardrail along northbound I-205 in Vancouver
CLARK – Travelers who use Interstate 205 in Clark County should expect delays.
On Thursday, Sept. 11, the Washington State Department of Transportation maintenance crews will repair damaged guardrail along northbound I-205 in Vancouver.
Guardrails help keep vehicles from going off the road or crossing into oncoming traffic during a crash. They also absorb some of the impact to reduce how serious the crash can be.
What to expect
- Thursday, Sept. 11: The left lane of northbound I-205, between the I-205/State Route 14 interchange and the off-ramp for Mill Plain Boulevard (mileposts 27-28), will close from 6 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. for guardrail repairs.
Travelers should slow down, stay focused, and expect delays through the work zone.
