Some good travel news, for a change
has changed its closure schedule of the Hood Canal Bridge with the goal of keeping it open for as many weekends as possible for those traveling to the Olympics this summer.
Instead of four long-term weekend closures of the bridge, WSDOT decided to separate the work into phases. The closures are:11 p.m. Monday, May 15, to 4 a.m. Tuesday, May 1611 p.m. Wednesday, May 17, to 4 a.m. Thursday, May 1811 p.m. Tuesday, May 23, to 4 a.m. Wednesday, May 2410 p.m. Saturday, June 10, to 10 a.m. Sunday, June 1111 p.m. Tuesday, June 13, to 4 a.m. Wednesday, June 1410 p.m. Saturday, June 17, to 10 a.m. Sunday, June 1811 p.m. Tuesday, June 20, to 4 a.m.
This work was supposed to happen in 2021, but was postponed because of the pandemic. It was rescheduled for last year, but supply chain issues pushed it to 2023.“We’re going to be in the water, and we’re going to be suspended from a bridge, so the water absolutely has to be calm in order to do this,” he said. “The time to do that is in the summer.”
“We know every weekend on the Olympic Peninsula, there is a huge event that draws tons of people, but what we’re looking at most is when’s the weather the best,” Krulish said.
