The Interstate 5 Toutle River rest area in Cowlitz County will close for maintenance next week, according to a press release from the Washington State Department of Transportation. The work includes repairs and cleaning out the septic systems.
The northbound and southbound facilities will both close beginning 6:30 a.m. Tuesday and will reopen at 5 p.m. Thursday. The annual maintenance closure is happening earlier than usual this year, according to WSDOT, due to high demand during the COVID-19 pandemic.
