Both EB and WB lanes and the right shoulders will close at different times during work hours.

Sept 8 – for 2 to 3 weeks: San Juan County’s Public Works Department is announcing its annual summer road striping schedule beginning on Tuesday, and lasting approximately two to three weeks. Pavement markings, including centerlines, shoulder markings, arrows, and more, are critical features of any safe and effective roadway, and it takes routine maintenance to ensure that these markings are clear, visible, and accurate.

Preliminary work is now underway on an intersection improvement project to enhance safety along State Route 20 by building a new roundabout at Campbell Lake Road. Most construction for the new roundabout south of Anacortes will be complete in July 2027, weather permitting.

OPENINGS:

Sept 17: At Chuckanut Creek, construction continues on the new northbound and southbound I-5 bridges. Crews recently set bridge support beams for the northbound structure and completed concrete pours on the southbound bridge. Work on the bridges will continue over the coming weeks, as crews build the remaining structural elements and prepare for opening the southbound bridge Sept. 17. Work at these two sites is part of a project that is removing and replacing 17 outdated culverts near Lake Samish.

I find the service of WCR invaluable. All our commercial work is reviewed through WCR. Having WCR available to me, has saved my company from having to hire an estimator. I do most of my work through Dawn, I find her work exemplary. The plans are put into very neat packages for customers so we can be as efficient as possible. She does this with one of the best attitudes of any one I know. By helping my company save time and money, I am able to hire more employees which helps me and my community. Thank you Dawn and Thank you WCR.
