Starting the first weekend after Labor Day 2021, The Dalles Bridge will be closed from Thursday nights at 8 p.m. through Monday mornings at 6 a.m. These closures will occur every weekend until Memorial Day 2022. Full weekend closures are needed to facilitate a bridge deck replacement project that will provide a smoother, safer ride for travelers between Oregon and Washington. The Biggs Junction bridge will provide access across the river during closure times.
