Yale Bridge closures, work for next 3 weeks

The Yale Bridge, which carries state Highway 503 over the Lewis River at the north end of Clark County, will be closed intermittently during the next three weeks while Washington State Department of Transportation crews perform repair work on the deck.

According to a press release from WSDOT, the intermittent closures will take place between 8 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. daily, from July 6-9, July 12-15 and July 19-20.

Drivers planning to cross the bridge on those days should prepare for delays of up to 30 minutes.

The single-lane bridge was built in 1932 and is weight-restricted. WSDOT replaced the yield signs at each end of the bridge with stops signs last month in order to extend the life of the bridge deck by slowing down the rate of vehicle traffic.
