Drivers who use the westbound Highway 522 off-ramp to West Main Street in Monroe should be prepared for an overnight closure of the ramp Monday. The closure is scheduled to start at 7 p.m. A short section of West Main Street, between Fryelands Boulevard and the east roundabout, also will close, at 10 p.m. Both the ramp and West Main Street are to reopen by 5 a.m. Tuesday.
During the closure contractor crews working for the Washington State Department of Transportation will continue work on a new roundabout on the west side of Highway 522.
