Freeway Lane Closures

Starting today, crews will set up long-term lane restrictions for scheduled bridge work on I-90 in Spokane, including:

• Eastbound I-90 will be reduced to one through lane at the Abbott Road Bridge at the top of the Sunset Hill.

• East and westbound I-90 will be reduced to two lanes at the Latah Creek Bridges near downtown Spokane.

• Drivers entering eastbound I-90 from US 195 need to use extra caution due to probable eastbound congestion.

• The eastbound US 2 to westbound I-90 ramp will be closed with a signed detour.

So here's what to expect: slow traffic, congestion, and delays. Allow for extra travel time in this five-mile section, especially when planning for appointments or airline travel and check out SpokaneRoadFix.net for updates.
