Overnight lane closures on Highway 101 start Monday

Contractor crews working for the Washington State Department of Transportation are finishing striping and utility work along a 4-mile stretch of eastbound Highway 101 between Aberdeen and Hoquiam starting Monday, requiring overnight lane closures.

Weeknights June 21-July 9 from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. each following day, the eastbound highway between South Fifth Street and South H Street will be reduced to a single lane.

Travelers are encouraged to watch for “wet paint” signs and not cross closed work zones. This work, part of the ongoing Department of Transportation paving project, is weather dependent and could be rescheduled.

Work is slated to wrap up mid-July.
