Vancouver, Wash. – Drivers in the Mount Vista area should prepare for a full closure of Northeast 159th Street between Northeast 57th Avenue and Northeast 50th Avenue beginning Monday, July 22.

Contractor crews installing sanitary lines in the area noticed erosion and deterioration of the soil beneath the roadway. The closure will allow contractor Tapani Inc., of Battle Ground, to finish the installation of the sanitary lines, stabilize the ground beneath the roadway and repair those portions of the road.

During the closure, local access will be maintained for residents along Northeast 159th throughout the project area. A signed detour will be in place during the closure and will require drivers to use adjacent roads.

Drivers should expect delays in the project area until the closure is complete Friday, July 26.
