SPOKANE, Wash. – Crews will start work to repair worn concrete on the center and right lanes of eastbound Interstate 90 just west of Spokane August 4th 2026.
The Washington State Department of Transportation had delayed scheduled work to repair worn concrete on the center and right lanes of eastbound Interstate 90 just west of Spokane, because of fire risk.
This overnight work could create delays until Aug. 21st for people traveling between the US 2 and US 195 interchanges. Drivers will encounter lane reductions and ramp closures nightly from 8 p.m. to 4 a.m. Sundays through Friday mornings.
Crews will reduce eastbound I-90 to a single left lane on Sunset Hill.
The US 2 ramp to eastbound I-90 will close to traffic during working hours. Drivers will need to use a signed detour via the westbound US 2 ramp to westbound I-90, exiting at the Geiger/Grove interchange 1 mile to the west and then reentering eastbound I-90.
All lanes will be open during daytime hours.
During the three-week project, Washington State Department of Transportation crews will remove the old driving surface, then replace it to smooth out ruts.
Starting Sunday, Aug 9th, when the work zone is active, it will be equipped with a work zone speed camera.
