One-Day Closure of Pines Road for Rail Bridge Construction

Spokane Valley will close Pines Road for one day on July 9, 2025, to facilitate rail bridge construction, enhancing safety through grade separation. The Washington State Department of Transportation, in partnership with BNSF Railway, is overseeing this critical infrastructure project. Officials expect minimal traffic disruption, urging residents to consider alternate routes. The construction aligns with broader initiatives to improve transport safety and efficiency in Spokane County. This project is part of ongoing efforts to modernize local infrastructure, addressing the needs of growing traffic demands.

The closure will commence at midnight and is expected to conclude within the same day. Local stakeholders believe that successful completion will benefit both road and rail transport systems. Enhanced grade separation will ultimately improve safety for all road users in the area.
