A contractor with the Oregon Department of Transportation is continuing work to repair both of the Interstate 5 bridges in the Winchester area.

An ODOT update said crews will resurface the travel lanes, reconstruct joints, upgrade bridge rails and add protective screenings. Drivers should watch for intermittent weeknight lane closures in the southbound direction of the work zone. This will be on Sunday nights through Friday mornings from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.

The project is scheduled to be completed by September 30th. For more information go to the project website linked with this story at www.oregon.gov/odot/pages/project-details.aspx?project=22963
