The procession begins at 11 a.m. at Clark College in Vancouver and will enter I-5 from Mill Plain Boulevard. It will continue north to Exit 16 for ilani.

Northbound onramps between Mill Plain Boulevard and Exit 16 will be closed for the emergency vehicles, the State Patrol said.

Those wishing to view the procession should not congregate along I-5; it can be viewed from a number of overpasses along the route. Motorists who encounter the procession should pull over to the side of the freeway and stop until it passes.

Brown’s memorial service begins at 1 p.m. at ilani.

The public is invited to attend the service. Parking will be clearly marked. Photo and video will not be allowed inside ilani, except for media and those already designated by the Brown family.
