After building and installing the steel and wooden falsework structure needed to build the new sourthbound Willamette River Bridge for almost two years, the crew is now busy taking it down, a clear sign the bridge is nearly complete. Driving past the project, you will see portions of the bridge standing free, without any construction supports.

Removing the falsework requires careful attention to safety. Creews work overhead to disassemble the falsework, lower it to the ground and move it to storage areas. They have to watch for other workers on the site, as well as people, cars and trains that pass underneath.
To safely remove overhead falsework, we closed the Interstate 5 northbound off-ramp to Franklin Boulevard and Franklin Boulevard under the bridge in mid-June. We appreciate your continuing patience when future work closures are needed.

As the falsework is removed, we are taking care to preserve as much material as possible, storing it on or near the site, so it can be reused to build the northbound
