You've probably seen the electronic signs. The Oregon Department of Transportation really is closing Interstate 84 from Interstate 5 to I-205 overnight Friday. The closure is for ODOT to install massive sign bridges across the freeway in two locations. The bridges will hold electronic signs that will give traffic and weather information to drivers.

The Banfield will be closed 11 p.m. Friday through 6 a.m. Saturday, January 12-13. Some exits and on ramps may close as early at 8 p.m. on Friday. There will be no vehicle access during the closure.

Alternate routes include East Burnside Street, Northeast Glisan and Halsey streets or Marine Drive or Northeast Columbia Boulevard for those driving through northern parts of the metro area.

BROADWAY BRIDGE (tonight): Expect several openings of the Broadway Bridge drawbridge 8 p.m.-midnight Thursday, Jan. 11, related to Rall Wheel repairs. Expect brief delays. The Steel Bridge is a good alternate crossing.
