The City of Corvallis and OSU are collaborating on a project to improve the pedestrian crossing at SW 35th St. and SW Campus Way. A pedestrian detour and preliminary work have already been established in this area. A full closure of the intersection is currently scheduled to start on Monday, July 29 through Friday, August 9.

The intersection at SW 35th St. and SW Campus Way will be fully closed in all directions during this time frame.  
Vehicles will be directed to use SW 30th St. as a detour around the closure. Please note: the Benton County Fair will be held July 31 – August 3, which is likely to increase traffic on SW 53rd St. Please follow the detour signs and use SW 30th St. as a detour to avoid delays on SW 53rd St. See map below.

A pedestrian detour has already been established in the area and will remain in place for the duration of the closure. Bicyclists may use the pedestrian detour route as well.

  • Pedestrians traveling on the west sidewalk on 35th St. (approaching from the north side) will be detoured onto a temporary pathway and directed to north sidewalk on Campus Way and may proceed west.
