Last night a rockslide closed a lane of SR 155 south of Steamboat Rock State Park. One of the rocks is large enough it will require blasting to break it up before it's cleared. Plan for auto-flagger controlled traffic and delays until clean up and repairs are complete.

Last night around 11:15pm, while our crews were performing maintenance on EB I-90 in Spokane, a vehicle ran into the back of one of our vehicles. Thankfully there were no injuries.

Please, please, please slow down, move over and use caution. This happens all too often.

Shoutout to our snowplow drivers who worked tirelessly around the clock last night and this morning to keep our roads clear. They truly are the best around.

Good Thursday morning! That was quite the night last night, but the work isn't done! Just spotted one of our wing plows headed south on US 195 in Spokane. Crews are out monitoring roads and cleaning up the shoulders. Please continue to give them plenty of space to work.

Crews are BUSY tonight! Please make sure to give them space and drive for conditions.

Crew member shared this picture filling material at our new salt shed that was completed this past fall, just off the North Spokane Corridor. Location is critical to limit crews time off our roads.
