Roadwork is affecting traffic near you
- Long-term projects: Lane County: Construction is happening on Gilham Road between Ay Road and Don Juan Avenue to install storm sewers, water quality facilities, retaining walls, ADA curb ramps, sidewalks, and paving. Work started April 14 and is expected to finish by December 31. Detours and flaggers will be in place to direct traffic.
Coburg Road: Construction is underway between Fox Meadow and North Game Farm Road for utility work and ADA installations. Lane changes will be managed by flaggers.
