Curious how we’re smoothing the driving surface on SB I-5 between NE 179th St & the I-5/I-205 split in #Vanwa Meet the “guillotine” — aka the drop hammer breaker. It breaks old pavement into small pieces that are reused as the base for the new roadway. bit.ly/4dw5f6y

UPDATE MAY 7: Scaling work continues on a slope above SR 20 near Diablo Lake. Crews use hand tools, air compression (and a little muscle) to send loose rock down the slope. SR 20 remains closed from MP 130-156. More info in our latest blog update bit.ly/SR20blog
WSDOT North@wsdot_north

UPDATE MAY 6: After getting equipment on site, our contractor began inspecting the slope and dislodging loose rocks and debris. This delicate process, called scaling, will continue for several days. SR 20 remains closed from MP 130-156. No access for hiking, biking or camping.

Too much work going on, not enough time to make a fancy graphic. Our maintenance folks are busy this morning in and around the Spokane area. Please remember to watch for them, follow the traffic control, and slow down.
