Plans for a 72-Hour closure of the Hood River-White Salmon Interstate bridge this weekend has been pushed back two weeks due to rain in the weather forecast. A statement from the Port of Hood River says that since the work must be conducted in dry conditions, Port contractor Granite Construction has notified the Port that they will use the rain delay option provided for in their contract to do the work. The closure will now take place beginning at 12:01 a.m. the morning of Friday, June 24 through 11:59 p.m. the night of Sunday, June 26. The planned work is to repair the approach ramps on both sides of the bridge.
