Starting the week of April 14, striping crews will begin applying highway markings on one-way streets in Pendleton and along U.S. 395 (Southgate) toward Les Schwab. This project is expected to kick off in Baker City early in the week and move to Pendleton by Wednesday.
To minimize disruption to local traffic, work in Pendleton is scheduled between 2 a.m. and 7 a.m.
Through the remainder of April, crews will expand their efforts to include Hermiston, as well as Interstate 84 and Interstate 82. Specific locations and schedules outside of Pendleton are flexible and subject to change.
