There were no reported injuries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-tl066j-0 fGpOKu body-paragraph\">According to a <a href=\"https:\/\/urldefense.com\/v3\/__https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/WSDOT__;!!F8-Dj6fVkZI!b8O5TkgXnZ5WGpoUzJjkvtw3a3rWkdDNmoNNTeZDo2w4ChG66f3-1Dn1sj59K5S3iVd8QMIuxvq6NNdA-WGwKts5Clcpd10$\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">post <\/a>on Facebook from the WSDOT, the landslide happened just before 6 a.m. Sunday on I-5 north of Iowa Street at milepost 254 in Bellingham. A semi was stuck in the mud as a result of the incident.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-tl066j-0 fGpOKu body-paragraph\">Crews are on the scene working to clear debris and fix damage to barriers and walls, a spokesperson for WSDOT said. In addition to clearing debris, the jersey barrier was pushed into the southbound lanes and needed to be realigned. Additionally, geotechnical experts will evaluate slope stability at this location.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-tl066j-0 fGpOKu body-paragraph\">Crews are clearing an estimated 2,000 cubic yards of debris, according to WSDOT. A tow truck has been called to remove the semi-truck as of 10:15 Sunday morning. The left lane of southbound I-5 is also blocked at this time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-tl066j-0 fGpOKu body-paragraph\">There is no estimated time regarding when northbound lanes will reopen. WSDOT anticipated a 3-mile backup due to the incident.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-tl066j-0 fGpOKu body-paragraph\">WSP directed traffic off I-5 at Lakeway and back on at Sunset. Travelers should continue to use alternate routes, WSDOT said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-tl066j-0 fGpOKu body-paragraph\">Significant rainfall has been recorded in this area, so flooding may be expected on many local roads nearby, WSDOT said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-tl066j-0 fGpOKu body-paragraph\">\u201cA reminder to drivers: We have water pooled over several roadways around Whatcom County from heavy rains. Do not drive through standing water and if you see a Road Closed sign, observe it. It\u2019s there for your safety and the safety of crews who may be working on the other side. We will reopen roads as quickly and safely as we can,\u201d WSDOT said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-tl066j-0 fGpOKu body-paragraph\">A spokesperson with the WSDOT said that the area is not the same as a 2021 landslide, which was on Nulle Road.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-tl066j-0 fGpOKu body-paragraph\">There is no further information regarding this incident at this time.<\/p>\n<section class=\"block-margin-bottom gallery\"\/>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-tl066j-0 fGpOKu body-paragraph body-copyright\">\u00a92024 Cox Media Group<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script id=\"facebookSdk\" defer=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kiro7.com\/news\/local\/massive-landslide-northbound-i-5-just-north-iowa-street-bellingham-closes-roadway\/ZT4UP5TALBDDNE34T25MNLSCNE\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BELLINGHAM, Wash. \u2014 The Washington State Department of Transportation said northbound Interstate 5, just north of Iowa Street in Bellingham, is closed because of a massive landslide Sunday morning.
