Roadwork is affecting traffic near you

  • Long-term projects: – Lane County is working on Gilham Road between Ayres Road and Don Juan Avenue to build storm sewers, water quality facilities, retaining walls, ADA curb ramps, sidewalks, and paving. The project started April 14 and will continue until December 31. Detours and flaggers are in place to direct traffic. – Construction is happening on Coburg Road between Fox Meadow and North Game Farm Road. There are lane changes with flaggers managing traffic for utility work and ADA ramp installations.
