Upcoming construction in the vicinity of Spokane International Airport (SIA) will
affect drivers. Over the next ten days there will
be a series of on and off ramp closures to allow time to grind
out old pavement and repave.  The full closures are
limited to single-lane ramp sections where the roadway will be blocked during
the work.  The most intense work will be scheduled during hours when
traffic counts are lowest.
 
During
the following days and hours, segments of on and off ramps leading
to and from Spokane International Airport on US 2 and Sunset Hwy. will be closed for construction. Detours will direct drivers to and from
SIA. Expect slow traffic, congestion,
and delays.
