WOODLAND — Repairs to the hillside that slipped and closed Interstate 5 north of Woodland early December should be complete by the end of the month, clearing the way to reopen the road’s remaining closed lane, according to the Washington State Department of Transportation.
Days of heavy rain led to the slide, which displaced trees, soil and boulders the size of cars during the afternoon on Dec.
