The Hood River-White Salmon Interstate Bridge will have intermittent, single-lane closures between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 3 p.m., Monday through Friday, March 22 to April 2 for semi-annual maintenance and repair welding to the steel grate bridge deck.

Motorists should expect delays of approximately 15-20 minutes. Motorists are urged to drive slowly and with extreme caution for worker safety, and to avoid looking directly at the welding arc light as they pass the work shield.
