About

​The purpose of this project is to restore two bridge decks in Klamath County. The U.S. 97 bridge over OR 422 near Chiloquin and the OR 39 southbound bridge over U.S. 97 northbound in Klamath Falls.  ​​

Both bridges are exhibiting deterioration including cracking, spalling, potholing and delamination of previous overlay. Repairing and resurfacing the two bridge decks preserves and extends their lifespan, continues to meet safety standards, and reduces the need for expensive replacements.​ ​

• ​U.S. 97 bridge over OR 422 in Chiloquin 
• OR 39 southbound bridge over U.S. 97 northbound in Klamath Falls. ​​

Cost and Funding
