Bridge Projects Could Slow You Down

Spokane County's Engineering and Roads Department wants to alert you to two bridge projects that could increase your travel time this summer.

The Elder Road Bridge maintenance project has closed Elder Road from State Route 27 to Campbell Road until approximately August 15th. The east end of the bridge has experienced some settling. The project will restore the bridge and approach roadway to its original condition.

The Rutter Parkway Bridge will be closed beginning Monday, July 6 until about August 31. Drivers should plan to use alternate routes. The project will rehabilitate the concrete deck and overlay slab with concrete.
