Travel Advisory 2 of 2: If you're heading west on Hwy 101 this Saturday

I-5 southbound access to Hwy 101 west will be closed 6 am to Noon

Posted

If you're headed toward west Olympia or Aberdeen on Hwy 101 this Saturday from Lacey or Olympia's Eastside, take a note.

Saturday from 6:00 a.m. to Noon, the Washington State Department of Transportation will be closing two main access points to and from Hwy 101 westbound.  These are:

  1.  The I-5 southbound onramp to Hwy 101 (Exit 104) 

But there's a detour, and it's about a 1.5 mile U-turn:

  1. Travel southbound I-5, to Trosper Road
  2. Exit there, and get back onto I-5 northbound.  
  3. Take northbound I-5 exit 104 onto US 101.

Why the disruption?  Trimming trees that might be hazardous or block drivers' views.  For safety reasons, the work must be performed during daylight hours.
