State Highway Construction Update
Nov. 17 to Nov. 23, 2009
(Oregon Coast Highway, mile post 41.06 to 41.20)
This project consists of disassembling and reassembling a failing rock retaining wall along U.S. 101 north of Manzanita. The reassembly will include new drainage features to improve the wall’s structural stability. The project also includes improvements to the surrounding sidewalk and parking area.
The scheduled work includes curb installation and paving. Traffic will be controlled with automated signals around the clock. Expect minor delays. The project is scheduled to be completed in November.
((Lower) Columbia River Highway, mile posts 36.47, 55.29, 77.25, and 82.52)
This project consists of bridge repair work at Tide Creek Bridge (mile post 36.47), Lost Creek Bridge (mile post 55.29), Gnat Creek Bridge (mile post 77.25) and Big Creek Bridge (mile post 82.52) on U.S. 30 (Lower Columbia River Highway).
The scheduled work includes replacing the concrete barrier along Gnat Creek bridge with two-tube steel rail. Contractors will also install guardrail at the bridge ends. During rail replacement at Gnat Creek Bridge, U.S. 30 will be reduced to one lane. Flaggers will control both directions of traffic around the clock for the duration of this work. The project is scheduled to be completed in summer 2010.
