I-90 East through Snoqualmie Pass will close Aug. 29 for rock blasting
I-90 East through Snoqualmie Pass will be closed while Department of Transportation contractor crews blast rocks in the area on Aug. 29.
During the work, cars moving eastbound will need to stop at milepost 63 and those moving westbound will be stopped at exit 70. More rock blasting is scheduled once or twice a week for the rest of the summer and into the mid-fall. Each closure will last up to one hour and is part of the project to widen I-90 to six lanes between the West Easton interchange and the Cabin Creek interchange.
