Update, Thursday, Dec. 7: the bridge and Northeast 156th Street has REOPENED. Originally posted information below.
Posted Dec. 6: Bridge #201, which carries Northeast 156th Street over Salmon Creek in Brush Prairie. High water is impacting the bridge. Drivers should use Northeast Cramer Road and SR 503 to detour around the closure. A map of the detour route can be found at https://clark.wa.gov/sites/default/files/dept/files/public-works/Alternate%20Routes%20-%20Bridge%20201.pdf.
We do not have an estimated timeline for reopening for any current closures. Water levels must sufficiently recede before we can inspect bridges, roads and trails for damage and determine when it is safe to reopen. Never enter closed areas.
Updates will be shared at clark.wa.gov/public-works, on Public Works social media profiles and via additional news releases. Residents are encouraged to check the website for announcements of additional closures before they head out on the roads.
