Maria Cantwell that advances the Interstate Bridge Replacement Program toward construction, addresses maritime navigation concerns, and removes the need for a lift span that currently disrupts traffic on Interstate 5. https://clarkcountytoday.com/news/coast-guard-approves-fixed-span-design-for-new-interstate-bridge/ #InterstateBridge #IBR #Infrastructure #Vancouver #WashingtonPolitics
