JOINT BASE LEWIS-MCCHORD – The Washington State Department of Transportation will close the Joint Base Lewis-McChord DuPont Gate for two weeks.
The JBLM DuPont Gate will begin its typical weekend closure at 9 p.m. Friday, May 22. Rather than opening after Memorial Day, the gate will remain closed until 5 a.m. Tuesday, June 9.
BELLINGHAM – As part of a project to restore fish passage at Friday, Lake and Chuckanut creeks near Bellingham, the Washington State Department of Transportation will relocate the well-known Bellingham Rock starting as early as Monday, April 20. Bellingham Rock has served as a community billboard along Interstate 5 for more than five decades.
BELLINGHAM – Emergency work will begin Saturday, March 21, on northbound Interstate 5 south of Bellingham after slides sent thousands of cubic yards of boulders, trees and other debris down a slope and across nearby lanes of the freeway.
STANWOOD – The Interstate 5/Secret Creek Fish Passage project near Stanwood is expected to reach its second major milestone in less than a month, weather permitting, on Friday, March 6. Southbound I-5 traffic will shift from a temporary two-lane bypass roadway in the median back to its usual three-lane configuration on the mainline freeway during an overnight rolling slowdown beginning Thursday night, March 5.
Drive the posted speeds, they’re there for your safety.
Pay attention – both to workers directing you and to surrounding traffic.
Expect delays, leave early or take an alternate route if possible; no appointment is worth risking someone’s life.
