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.

DUPONT – If the weather cooperates, a portion of the new Interstate 5 interchange in DuPont will open by mid-January. Workers will also fully open the new roundabout in DuPont.

Canceled: The closure of southbound I-405 between SR 900/East Sunset Boulevard and SR 167 is canceled due to equipment issues and will be rescheduled to another weekend. The release below has been updated to remove this closure. All other highway closures are going forward as planned.

Pendleton Avenue will also close overnight Sept. 8-9 for girder setting

DUPONT – Another round of girder setting for a new overpass in DuPont is scheduled for mid-September. Last April, crews installed girders for a new diverging diamond overpass over Interstate 5. On Monday, Sept. 15 they will return to the area – this time setting girders over the railroad next to the highway.

UPDATE: The series of westbound SR 18 lane, ramp and directional closures has been postponed and will be rescheduled at a later date. The scheduled work on the SR 99 First Avenue Bridge has also been canceled. The information has been removed in the news release below.
