The Washington state Department of Transportation (WSDOT) announced March 6 there will be crews working from 6 a.m. to noon on March 11 and March 12, as well as on March 18 and March 19, to clean the Nisqually River Bridge. 



Crews will close one lane of I-5 at the bridge for the annual cleanup, according to a news release from WSDOT.
