Impacts

Traffic Impact

Single lane closures with flaggers helping direct traffic as needed.

Construction Impacts

You can expect:

Noise, delays and lane closures with flaggers as needed.
Most impactful periods of work will require:

A 24-hour lane closure estimated for 10 days in June.
A 24-hour lane closure estimated for 24 days in September.
Flaggers will help direct traffic through the single lane during the closures.
The single lane will only be 14-feet wide. We'll use concrete barrier to help define the single lane. Vehicles needing more than 14-feet will need to use an alternate route.

Our schedule may change – visit TripCheck.com for the most up to date information on impacts.

Construction Activities

None at this time.

We plan to build half the bridge at a time – the eastbound lane and the westbound lane.

Visit TripCheck for the most current traffic information.

Pedestrians, including those with disabilities, will have access through or around work zones.

Always drive safely, watch for construction signs and workers.

Remember: fines double in all Oregon work zones, whether workers and signs are present or not.
