See how they shut down the roads to the international borders is because the US doesn't have a walled DMZ to shoot you if you try to cross. (mybellinghamnow.com)

The Bellingham closure is to divert a culvert for better fish habitat. Not a crazy political move

And they are closing the highway at night, during low usage hours to minimize disruptions, like most major road work projects. Even so, detours are set up. The highway will remain passable.

the express lanes will remain open during this time to provide an alternative route for bypassing the construction.
