Central Ferry bridge to receive much-needed roadway repair

CENTRAL FERRY–The Elmer C. Huntley Bridge on SR 127 spanning Garfield and Whitman Counties will receive a surface repair, reducing passage across the bridge to one lane of traffic beginning February 27, 2023.

Washington State awarded $3,196,208.50 on January 13, 2023, for the resurfacing of the Central Ferry bridge. The Hamilton Construction Company, out of Springfield, Ore., will hydro-mill one inch of the top concrete from the bridge and replace the covering it with two inches of modified concrete overlay. The 70-day project is expected to finish June 30, 2023. Travelers are advised to use caution when traveling through the construction area.
