OR 58: Coast Fork Willamette River to Lower Salt Creek Bridges

Construction Phase

Region 2: Willamette Valley and Northwest Oregon (Oakridge, Pleasant Hill, Lane)


​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​This seismic resiliency project will retrofit four bridges to meet current design standards. 


Banner: Slow down, in the work zone it could save lives. Building a modern transportation system to help Oregon’s communities and economy thrive. During construction, Give yourself more time, try a new way or mode to get there or take a different route.

Impacts

Traffic Impact

Expect occasional delays, shoulder and lane closures as needed.

Construction Impacts

You can expect:

  • Shoulder and lane closures as needed.
  • Construction noise and delays.
  • Trucks entering and leaving the road near the bridges.
  • The Dilley Boat Ramp to be closed at Coast Fork Willamette River Bridge.

Under the Salmon Creek Bridge, you can expect the hiking trail from Greenwater Park to be closed. Plan ahead – we've closed five parking spaces during construction.​​

Construction Activities

Use caution - these are active work zones as we retrofit these bridges along the corridor. 
  1. ​Coast Fork Willamette River Bridge: You will see crews working along the shoulders or under the bridge.​
  2. Willamette River (Barnard) Bridge: You will see crews working along the shoulders or under the bridge.​​
  3. Salmon Creek Bridge: We're wrapping up construction. You may see crews working under the bridge.
  4. Lower Salt Creek Bridge: We'll return in late summer to replace the asphalt road and joints on the bridge.
