Vancouver, Wash. – Crews with Clark County Public Works have closed a 3.7-mile portion of Pacific Highway between Woodland and La Center. The closure will allow crews to make repairs to the roadway that were damaged after heavy rains caused a mudslide.

Pacific Highway will remain closed between Northwest Bratton Road in Woodland and Northwest Bolan Street in La Center. Drivers should take alternate routes during the closure. No through traffic will be allowed, but local access will be maintained.

The closure will remain in place until crews are able to also replace a culvert that failed just north of the intersection of Pacific Highway and Northwest Griffith Road in Woodland. The repair work should take about two weeks but is weather dependent. Once the repair is complete, drivers can anticipate a rough roadway until weather allows the road to be re-paved.
