PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – Delays are coming to drivers using State Route 500 in Clark County on Thursday night.

Road crews will be replacing a power pole from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. on the right lane along northbound SR 500 at the Northeast 117th Avenue and Fourth Plain Blvd interchange.

The Washington State Department of Transportation said it is a standard closure to replace a worn-out power pole.

“Over time, power poles can wear out due to weather, age, and damage,” WSDOT said. “Replacing power poles can help prevent outages, keep travelers safe and ensure electricity flows smoothly for everyone.”
