The Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT) has announced that follow-up maintenance work on the Snake River Bridge on WY22 in Jackson is set to begin on Monday, June 8. This essential work is expected to last for three days, weather permitting, and will involve applying an epoxy overlay and welding snow plates on the expansion devices for both abutments.

Impact on Local Traffic

Commuters should prepare for lane closures in both directions during the daytime hours as the epoxy requires favorable temperatures to set properly. The initial day of work will focus on the epoxy overlay, while the subsequent two days will address the expansion devices.

WYDOT has urged drivers to exercise caution, put their phones down, and adhere to all roadside signs and closures to ensure safety during this period. For the latest updates on road status and driving conditions, residents are encouraged to visit the WYDOT travel map.
