Travelers can expect impacts starting March 14
Work begins on the McAlister Road Bridge over Interstate 84 in La Grande the week of March 14.
Work at this site is part of a larger project that includes six interstate bridges. We will upgrade bridge rails to current standards, repair and seal deck surfaces, and perform other necessary repairs. Traffic impacts will vary for each location. We will provide detailed information a couple of weeks prior to starting work. We anticipate construction at all locations to be completed by the end of November.
