Description
Description | The project involves replacing the Interstate 5 bridge across the Columbia River between Washington and Oregon. Tolling on the existing bridge will start to fund the project, which is estimated to cost between $5 billion and $7.5 billion. Construction is expected to begin after receiving federal approval in early 2026, with the new bridge anticipated to open in 2032 or 2033. Tolling on the existing bridge has been delayed to summer 2027, and toll rates may increase to compensate for the delay in revenue collection. |
