What to expect

This project is complete. Travelers will see construction delays while crews build the new southbound I-5 Puyallup River Bridge. Travel lanes on northbound I-5 across the new bridge are in a temporary configuration during the southbound I-5 Puyallup River Bridge project.

A new northbound Interstate 5 bridge across the Puyallup River opened to travelers in 2018.
