Drivers are encouraged to avoid Interstate 5 and US 101 in Olympia over the weekend of Sept. 19 while crews with the Washington State Department of Transportation repair a bridge expansion joint.

Day and night lane and ramp closures are expected to cause lengthy backups and traffic delays. Consider delaying discretionary trips, traveling early or using alternate routes.

Learn more about the project on the WSDOT's project Web page.
