Washington Department of Transportation will close approximately five miles of Interstate 90 east of Snoqualmie Pass for rock blasting this week.

WSDOT says drivers may also experience backups and delays from Monday, May 21 through Thursday, May 24 because of multiple work zones between North Bend and Ellensburg.
