The Washington State Department of Transportation and crews plan to close I-90 in both directions from 7 to 8 p.m. Tuesday, April 16, Wednesday, April 17 and Thursday, April 18, from Gold Creek (milepost 54) to the Price Creek Sno-Park (milepost 61). Crews are using the hour closure on Tuesday and Wednesday to prepare the work zone for a potential blast on Thursday. This work is weather dependent and may change if weather conditions change. Check our What’s Happening on I-90 website for changes to the rock blasting schedule.

Rock blasting is part of the $551 million I-90 Snoqualmie Pass East – Hyak to Keechelus Dam project to widen a five-mile stretch of the highway from four to six lanes. The project is scheduled to be complete in fall 2017.
