Merritt Bridge Repairs & Truck Restrictions | Spokane News
The Merritt Bridge over Priest River is under urgent repair after an underwater inspection revealed critical damage to its support pilings. Truck traffic is fully restricted, and the affected lane limits vehicles to under six tons—with single axles capped at 3.1 tons (6,200 lbs). Heavy rigs must detour via Oldtown and Old Priest River Road. Construction began August 25 and aims to finish by September 3—keeping safety top priority while restoring full capacity as soon as possible.
