About

enlarged project map iconThis section of OR 126 is a snow zone and the pavement was cracking and needed to be replaced. The pavement was in poor condition and required our maintenance crew to apply patches more frequently to hold this section together. There are three bridges in this section that also needed to be resurfaced. 

We: 

  • Removed the existing pavement. 

  • Repaved.

  • Applied permanent striping. 

  • Adjusted or replaced guardrail.

  • Resurfaced the bridges.

​By repaving, we created a smoother ride and preserved the road and bridges so more costly repairs are not needed in the future.
