We are ready for the Eugene Marathon

From ODOT-

Sunday morning, thousands of runners will take to the streets and Alton Baker Park for the fifth annual Eugene Marathon.



Runners will not need to worry about path closures due to construction work in Alton Baker Park and the Whilamut Natural Area affecting this year’s race.



Before construction began on the Willamette River Bridge project in 2009, we worked with the organizers of the Eugene Marathon to make sure a continuous route for the annual race is always maintained during construction of the new Interstate 5 Willamette River bridges.



While we use portions of Alton Baker Park for construction access and rebuild the paths, we make sure to keep path connections complete throughout the park.



Best of luck to all of participating in this yearly tradition!
