We're working in Lincoln City
|
 Next week, you'll see our crews in the Lincoln Beach and downtown areas. We're continuing to build curb ramps and will also begin working on the traffic signals at a handful of intersections.
Starting the week of April 14
We'll work on the traffic signals and curb ramps at the following U.S. 101 intersections:
- N 17th Street.
- SE 1st Street.
- N 22nd Street.
- N 6th Street.
While we fix these signals, you can expect daytime single lane closures on U.S. 101.
The traffic signals should continue to function as we do this work. Remember, if the signals stop working, the intersection becomes a four-way stop.
We plan to complete the traffic signal work by the end of May so they're in good working condition before this summer.
|
Don't forget:
Please use the designated crossings for the safest way to cross the street. While we're working on the sidewalks and ramps, some crossing may be closed for the safety of both pedestrians and drivers.
In Oregon, every intersection is a crossing unless marked otherwise. Crosswalk closed signs are important and are vital for pedestrian safety – these signs help identify crossings that aren't as safe as other ones nearby.
|
Remember, during construction, you can expect:
- Crews working Monday through Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
- Shoulder and lane closures as needed.
- Delays with flaggers helping direct traffic as needed.
- Construction noise – using saws to cut concrete can be loud and dusty.
- Businesses to remain open during construction.
This is a great time to remember to use the zipper merge, drive with caution and continue to support local businesses that are open during construction by following the blue markers!
Curious why are ADA curb ramps important?
ADA curb ramps make it easier for people to move between the sidewalk and road. This can be helpful for those who have trouble stepping up and down high curbs. It's also helpful for people using wheelchairs, strollers, walkers, hand carts and bicycles.
By making curb ramps gently slope to the road, it improves accessibility and makes it easier for everyone to get around, whether they have a disability or not.

Pay attention in the work zone, slow down and move over – imagine this is where you work! Always drive safely, watch for construction signs and workers.
Remember that fines double in all Oregon work zones, whether workers and signs are present or not.
