||| FROM BRENDAN COWAN for DEPARTMENT OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT |||
Things are looking good for a potential opening tomorrow (Tuesday – knock on wood). Public Works is awaiting delivery of barriers for the road edge that are due to arrive on the 5:30 a.m. ferry on Tuesday from Anacortes. Once those are placed and final site work is complete, the road will be open to one lane of traffic, potentially as early as late morning tomorrow.
There are still opportunities for there to be unexpected delays, so temper expectations, but there is reason for optimism.
A few key points:
- Once road is open, there will be a clearly marked system for what direction will need to yield to oncoming traffic. Please respect all signage.
- All remaining resident vehicles should be removed from the Doe Bay lot as soon as possible.
- Please go slow and use caution on the crossing once the road is open.
Thanks all for your patience and support!
