Effective January 2008 Travel Advisory: Bridge work on the US97-Biggs Rapids–Sam Hill Bridge will begin in January of 2008. The bridge is expected to be closed to traffic through Memorial Day. It will be open for summer traffic and close again just after Labor Day, remaining closed until work is completed. During this period, travelers to Maryhill have a choice of routes that cross the Columbia River and intersect with Highway 14. From the west, the closest route is US 197, crossing The Dalles Bridge, approximately 24 miles and 25 minutes to the Museum. From the east, the closest is I-82/US 395, crossing the Umatilla Bridge, approximately 91 miles or 1.5 hours to the Museum. Travelers from the north, including those traveling south on US 97, will have no problem accessing Highway 14. Current information about the status of the bridge repair can be found on the website of the Washington State Department of Transportation: http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/Projects/US97/BiggsBridge/
