Woodin Avenue Bridge under construction since Tuesday

During the first week of construction, crews will be mobilizing equipment, surveying, removing a lamp, unloading water main pipe that will span the bridge, and then installing pipe hangers under the bridge. There will be short intermittent delays to bring vehicles and equipment into the area.

A couple items will be most noticeable to drivers. The first will be the permanent closure of 3rd street from Okanogan to Woodin Avenue (the steep hill section) which took place Tuesday afternoon. Also, Woodin Avenue Bridge will be changed to a one-way configuration starting Thursday, September 6. Drivers will only be able to approach the bridge from the west side heading toward downtown. Temporary directional devices will be setup and remain in place until the permanent configuration is completed.
