Travelers to and from Westfir must detour
August 14, 2019
WESTFIR – Westfir Road is closed at Old Barnard Bridge, over the Willamette River, until repairs can be made to the foundation under a footing of the bridge. The closure does not affect OR 58.
ODOT bridge inspection dive crews conducting a routine inspection found that there is a hole under the footing, possibly caused by debris flow from last winter’s large storms and landslides in the area.
Westfir Road is located at milepost 31.06, across from the OR 58 Ranger Station. Travelers to and from Westfir should take Westfir-Oakridge Road as a detour.
There is no estimate for when repairs will be made and the road reopened.
