Good morning!! Just like the #Seahawks shut down the Patriots last night, we are shutting down the SR 194 bridge at the Port of Almota in Whitman County for repairs. Starting today, the traveling public will not have access across the bridge. This closure will last until June 1.

Kudos to our maintenance crews who replaced a culvert and made repairs from a washout on SR 291 near Suncrest last night. And kudos to everyone who helped keep them safe by slowing down and moving over in the area!

This admin may not have much snowplow content lately, but at least the North Spokane Corridor never lets us down.

Heads up. US 395 near Loon Lake is backed up due to a collision blocking both directions. Expect long delays and seek alternate routes.

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.

(1/2) We will close the Hansen Rd overpass over I-90 (Exit 174) in Moses Lake starting Sat, Jan. 17 at 6AM, after an inspection raised concerns about deterioration of the bridge. Additional inspection is needed to determine next steps. There is no estimated time to reopen.

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.

Pilot car is necessary because we are still working on road and drainage repair and need the full road to stage and operate. The overnight closures give our crews and contractor time to expedite the remaining repair work.
