SHINE – The state Department of Transportation has scheduled intermittent closures of the Hood Canal Bridge between 10 p.m. Sunday and 4 a.m. Monday and between 11 p.m. Monday and 4 a.m. Tuesday.
During this time, crews will open the bridge to traffic several times to ease congestion. The traffic openings will be unscheduled and performed as workloads allow.
Contractor crews are replacing the Hood Canal Bridge’s gear boxes, hydraulic hoses and adjusting and aligning the guide rollers that are responsible for operating the draw span for marine traffic.
Work began this spring and is expected to continue through this month.
Transportation awarded the $5.2 million project to Northbank Civil and Marine Inc. in October.
