The Potter Road Bridge over the south fork of the Nooksack River will be down to one lane during the day from Feb. 23 to 26.

Whatcom County Public Works expects to limit traffic from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily through Friday to install pedestrian railing. Bad weather could delay the work.

The railing is part of the finishing work after replacing the old bridge at Van Zandt.
