About
This section of highway was paved in 2003. Due to its age, the pavement now requires extensive repairs. If left unaddressed, this section will continue to deteriorate. Poor pavement leads to frequent and costly maintenance, decreases safety, increases vehicle operating costs, and results in higher repair costs in the future.
We will update the weigh-in-motion system at the Farewell Bend Port of Entry (POE) by replacing sensors in the pavement. We will also install a new weigh-in-motion system with a signal on the ramp.
This system will significantly reduce the number of vehicles that need to be weighed at the POE, thereby alleviating congestion on I-84. Commerce and Compliance Division (CCD) Enforcement will be able to efficiently process more vehicles.
Other project elements include:
- Addition of variable message signs.
- New westbound chain-up area lighting.
- Guardrail upgrades.
