There will be intermittent, single-lane closures of the Hood River-White Salmon Interstate Bridge between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, June 10-14 for semi-annual bridge deck welding. Port crews and crews from Bulldog Welding will be on the bridge performing weld repairs to the bridge deck, as well as replacing and repairing sections of guardrail.

In response to significant concerns expressed by food and beverage industry commuters on both sides of the river, the Port has been able to negotiate a later closing time for the total bridge closures schedule for May 2019. The bridge will now be closed beginning at 9:30 p.m. on each of the dates listed below, and remain closed until 5:30 a.m. the following morning.
