Four miles of Interstate 5 in southwest Portland will close in all directions between June 28 and July 1 as crews rebuild the bridge deck across Southwest 26th Avenue.

The closure will begin at 9 p.m. June 28. All lanes will reopen by 5 a.m. July 1.

As a detour around the closure, traffic can use major Portland area highways, including Interstate 205, Interstate 84, Oregon Route 217 or U.S. Route 26. Southwest Barbur Boulevard will be available for local traffic.

The project may include occasional nighttime single- and double-lane closures in both directions in the months ahead. Those closures have not been scheduled.
