Traffic delays on Franklin Boulevard

From ODOT-

The project is about to reach another milestone. The final supports and falsework for the Willamette River Bridge are about to be built south of the river, spanning over Franklin Boulevard.

Once the supports are in place, we can begin building the bridge from the north side of Franklin Blvd. to where it connects with Interstate 5 on the south side.

November 1-3, the right hand lanes of Franklin Blvd. will be closed due to construction activity starting at 5 a.m. and continuing until 5 p.m. daily. Expect traffic delays in both directions for up to 20 minutes as beams are placed over the roadway.

Be sure to slow down and follow the instructions of flaggers and construction warning signs throughout the project area.

This view from Franklin Blvd. is about to change as we build the new bridge overhead.
