It used to be so predictable. We’ve seen that off-time shrink and shrink over the years to the point where the Washington Department of Transportation’s Tom Pearce said there is just one long season — all year.
There is no such thing as construction season. There is so much work to do around the state that those orange cones are going to be with us around the calendar.
“Construction season is starting early this year, and that’s going to become the norm,” Pearce said. “We’re going to be seeing a lot more work continue through the winter, when it’s possible, because we just have so many projects coming up in the coming years.”And this week is a good example of how things have changed.
“We’re going to keep the express lanes open to help with this situation,” Washington State Department Of Transportation’s Amy Moreno said. A little to the south, WSDOT’s Pearce said there will be 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. northbound I-5 lane closures for expansion joint replacement through Thursday night.
