More Flooding Causes Traffic Congestion At 16th Avenue In Yakima

My drive has become hectic these days due to ramp closures at 40th and now water is pouring onto the streets near Lake Aspen.

I tried to leave work today through the 16th avenue exit and discovered that route to be delayed.

A new DOT press release states 16th ave at mile post 102 exit is closed. 

US 12 drivers will need to use, North 1st Street, Yakima Ave, Nob Hill, or Union Gap exits as alternate routes.

The DOT says updates will be provided as more information becomes available.

Visit WSDOT or call 5-1-1 for information.
