Sound wall work along I-5 southbound on-ramp

From ODOT-

Timelines on a construction project are based on many factors, including scheduling work to limit mobility impacts that may be required. We focus on providing notice of potential delays, alternatives available and how long the changes will be in place.

Earlier this week, a comment was posted regarding completion of the sound wall along I-5 southbound on-ramp from Franklin Boulevard. The on-ramp was closed on June 21 of this year with an expected re-opening date of November 30. The opening date is now slated for December 30. By extending the date, we can complete the new sound wall adjacent to the Laurel Hill Valley neighborhood during this construction season. We are now installing the block for the wall. Finishing touches, including landscaping, will occur later this year or early next year. See my comment on the July 21- Ramps and Walls post for more details

Completion of the sound wall and re-opening of the on-ramp is something we at ODOT look forward to along with, I am sure, all those who live in the Laurel Hill Valley neighborhood.
