SR 26 project slated to close road starting Oct. 8th

After weeks and weeks of construction delays, the Washington State Department of Transportation now has a start date for the bridge repair project that will shut down State Route 26 east of Othello. A WSDOT spokesman tells CougCenter construction is expected to get underway on the road October 8th, with a roughly 15-20 minute detour in place while construction goes on. The agency expects to confirm the start date early next week.

The closure will affect, at the very least, home games against the Oregon Ducks, California Golden Bears and the Arizona Wildcats.
