HYAK — Traffic on I-90 over Snoqualmie Pass will be restricted to two lanes — one in each direction — next week.
The state Transportation Department is closing lanes from 9 p.m. Sunday to 7 a.m. Friday Oct. 19 to prepare the highway for winter travel along a three-mile stretch on the east side of the summit near Hyak.
By next fall the interstate will be widened to six lanes along a stretch of the highway under a cliff.
The Daily Record reported it’s part of the $551 million project that included blasting 84,000 dump truck loads of rock from the cliff over the past four years.
