OTHELLO — Drivers along State Route 26 should plan for delays in the area of South Lucy Road about 10 miles east of Othello from now through Wednesday. 

Washington Department of Transportation crews are repairing the deck of a bridge along the highway, according to a WSDOT press release. 

“Working hours are 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily and will require flagger-controlled traffic with a pilot car,” the press release said. “Travelers should plan for delays of up to 20 minutes during working hours.”
