WSDOT: I-5 HOV project will close 20th Street East in Fife

Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) officials will close a segment of 20th Street East in Fife to all traffic for two years beginning on Mon., March 9.

During the two-year closure, crews working for WSDOT will build a new northbound Interstate 5 bridge over the Puyallup River, build a new northbound high-occupancy-vehicle lane, and make other improvements to Interstate 5 between Portland Avenue in Tacoma and the Port of Tacoma Road in Fife.

The road closure is part of the Interstate 5 – Portland Avenue to Port of Tacoma Road – Northbound HOV project.

Vehicles and bicyclists will be detoured while the road is closed.
