The westbound SR 14 off-ramp to Evergreen Boulevard will be closed from 5 a.m. to 3 p.m. this Wednesday, Thursday and Friday - November 15-17 - for work on a City of Vancouver water improvement project.
Drivers should watch for signs indicating traffic changes and be alert to construction activity. Outside of ramp closure times, motorcycles should exercise caution in presence of steel plates over portions of the roadway. Work in this SR 14 ramp is scheduled for off-peak periods to reduce impacts to commuters who use Evergreen Boulevard to travel home in the evenings.
The city's project will renew and extend the life of an existing water main that crosses beneath SR 14, from East Evergreen Boulevard to Southeast Evergreen Highway, east of Chelsea Avenue. Rehabilitating the water main is also expected to require daily ramp closures of the westbound SR 14 off-ramp to Evergreen Boulevard from 5 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday, starting late in November or early December.
