Overnight Lane Closures Planned For South George Washington Way Intersection Project
- 08/09/26
Drivers should expect overnight lane closures near the George Washington Way and Columbia Point Drive intersection beginning Tuesday, August 11, as crews install new roadway signs associated with the South George Washington Way Intersection Improvements Project.
Work is scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. Tuesday and continue until approximately 5 a.m. Wednesday, August 12. Crews will install cantilever signs on Columbia Point Drive east of the WinCo driveway entrance and on George Washington Way north of Benham Street.
Crews will also install the Welcome to Richland sign on northbound George Washington Way, south of the Columbia Point Drive intersection, using the existing WSDOT sign bridge.
The work will require temporary lane closures on:
- Eastbound Columbia Point Drive
- Southbound George Washington Way
- Northbound George Washington Way south of the Columbia Point Drive intersection
At least one lane of traffic will remain open in each affected direction during the work.
If crews are unable to complete all sign installation Tuesday night, work will resume at 8 p.m. Wednesday, August 12.
This is expected to be the last major traffic disruption associated with the South George Washington Way Intersection Improvements Project.
Drivers should use caution through the work zone, watch for crews and equipment, and follow all posted traffic control.
