The Dalles – Since 2021, crews have been working to replace the driving surface of The Dalles Bridge over the Columbia River, and now a major portion of the project is complete.
We are happy to report that the weekend closures have ended, and no more full weekend closures will be needed for this project.
The bridge deck replacement is complete, but travelers should expect to see continued construction through April. Crews will be closing single lanes at night during the week and flagging traffic. There will be two consecutive weekends in April with nighttime only closures of the entire bridge. These nighttime only closures are needed to place a smooth, continuous concrete surface over the entire length of the bridge. Paving is weather dependent, so the schedules could change even after they are announced later this spring. Other construction impacts can be found on TripCheck.com or by signing up for updates here (look under Central Oregon Region 4 for the weekly construction updates).
We would like to thank everyone for all of their patience and understanding throughout this complicated project and the full weekend closures. For more bridge construction information, take a look at this video.
