Camas – An 11-mile section of state Highway 500 between Vancouver and Camas is getting some repairs, so single-lane closures are scheduled through August.
Contractors working for the Washington Department of Transportation are currently preparing for chip-sealing on damaged portions of Highway 500.
During construction traffic will be reduced to a single lane. Drivers should be prepared for delays of up to 20 minutes.
“The road isn’t in great shape — there’s a fair amount of rutting, deterioration and cracking,” Jonathan Abuyan, WSDOT assistant project engineer said in a news release. “This work will extend the life of the highway and reduce the need for costly maintenance and emergency repairs.”
