TRAFFIC ADVISORY - REDMOND
For more information contact Julianne Repman (541) 388-6224
Evergreen Avenue between NE 3nd Street and Railroad Avenue will temporarily close to through traffic on February 2 to facilitate canal piping work in the area. Local business and residential traffic will continue to have local access during construction. Construction is expected to be completed by the end of February. Motorists are advised to use the signed detour routes to move around the area.
J W Fowler Construction crews will use the closure period to pipe a section of the Central Oregon Irrigation District (COID) canal and remove the Evergreen Avenue Bridge. Crews will perform canal-piping work during daylight hours. Some weekend and evening work may be possible. Rock crushing and painting work is expected to create intermittent noise in the area between 7am and 10pm. Travelers are encouraged to slow down and use caution when approaching this intersection.
The COID canal will be piped from a point south of the Fred Meyer store to a point near Dogwood Avenue during the months to come. This piping work will eliminate the need for bridges at Antler Avenue and at Evergreen Avenue. Crews are working to pipe the canal from north to south in order to accommodate monthly stock runs in the canal. This canal piping project is anticipated to be completed in April.
