Due to railroad crossing work conducted by Union Pacific, two longer-term closures will occur along Washington Way at the intersections of SW 26th and SW 30th St. These closures will begin the week of August 24 and be in effect through mid-September. The intersections will be closed in all directions. No through traffic will be permitted. Please see schedule below.

  • 8/24 – 9/11: intersection at Washington Way and SW 26th St. closed in all directions. NO through traffic permitted
  • 8/28 – 9/17: intersection at Washington Way and SW 30th St. closed in all directions. NO through traffic permitted.

Pedestrian crossings and sidewalks in the area may be temporarily restricted. Please follow detour signage.

All closures will be in effect 7:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. The intersections will reopen for nights and weekends. Other impacts may include noise and dust near the work zones.

Please note: these closures will be overlapping starting on 8/28, meaning that the SW 26th St. and SW 30th St. intersections will be closed simultaneously. Please plan to utilize SW 15th St. or SW 35th St. as a north-south detour. A third closure will occur at SW 17th St. starting in early September. A separate notification will sent prior to that start date.

For questions or comments on this closure, contact Project Manager Scott Bond at (541) 974-2520.  

The traffic signal at SW 35th St. and Western Blvd. will be shut down on Thursday, August 27 from 9:00 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. to allow for Comcast to install aerial fiber. Flaggers will be present at the intersection to direct traffic. Pedestrian access will be maintained as much as possible. Pedestrians should follow any detour signage.
