Construction Alert
May 31, 2006
Bob Cynkar from the City of Portland just sent out road closure information related to the Tanner Creek Sewer Project along Sunset Highway that may affect some of your riding routes. The schedule listed here goes through June 12.
Tanner Creek Sewer Project - Sunset Highway
Construction Schedule Tuesday, May 30 to Monday, June 12
Released Tuesday, May 30
Work will continue in three areas this week and next:
* In the PGE Park - Canyon Road exit ramp and tunnel, crews will
finish laying pipe through the tunnel and in a short stretch of the ramp
above the tunnel. Work will be done in this area 24 hours a day, all days.
Once pipelaying is complete, work will start to restore the roadway in
preparation for re-opening to traffic. The ramp and tunnel are tentatively
scheduled to re-open to public traffic the week of June 19.
* In the canyon area that is off-road and adjacent to the PGE Park exit
ramp, work will continue to lay the new stormwater pipe. Work hours here are
7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
* In the Jefferson Court area that is off-road and below the PGE Park-Canyon
Road exit tunnel, no work is scheduled the week of June 5. Pipe-work and
grading for construction of a stormwater treatment swale in this area is
scheduled June 5 - 13.
* Work along the shoulder of the Sunset Highway at the upper end of the
project is tentatively scheduled to start around mid-June. This
highway-shoulder area starts near where the eastbound zoo on-ramp merges
with the highway and continues downhill almost 2000 feet. Schedule and
traffic control details will be publicized as soon as they are available.
