MATS WS to HR expect delays
Intermittent single-lane closures of the Hood River-White Salmon Interstate Bridge will begin on Monday, April 8th, and continue through Friday, April 12th, between 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. The closures will then resume on Monday, April 15th, through Friday, April 19th, during the same hours. Crews will be conducting welding repairs on the bridge deck this spring to address increased deck fractures due to heavy truck loads.
Flaggers will direct traffic on the bridge. Drivers should expect delays of approximately 15 minutes during these hours. Due to the narrow lanes on the bridge, drivers are strongly advised to proceed slowly and cautiously to ensure the safety of workers. Additionally, they should refrain from directly looking at the welding arc light when passing through the work zone.
New MATS schedules to begin April 29th.
To better serve you, the new route timetables have changed to have better connection times with The Dalles, Hood River, Stevenson and Portland bus schedules. We are continually improving to provide the best possible service around The Gorge.
