WSDOT restricts southbound lane on US 395 and Lewis Street on-ramp near Blue Bridge Jan. 14

Southbound delays likely, consider alternate routes

PASCO– WSDOT maintenance crews will close the right lane of southbound US 395 from Sylvester Street to the Blue Bridge and the interchange on-ramp from Lewis Street to US 395 while electrical crews make improvements to the camera system. The closures will last from 9 a.m. until noon on Wednesday, Jan. 14.

Drivers should “Give ‘em a brake” by slowing down and following the orange signs, cones, barrels and electronic signs that will guide them into the left lane through the construction zone.

Northbound traffic will not be affected.
