We're Working on OR 223 and OR 99W in Dallas and Rickreall
|
 Our crews continue to make progress on the ADA curb ramp project in Dallas and Rickreall as part of our effort to make the areas more accessible whether you drive, ride, walk or roll.
We're working during the day AND night the week of June 9
Next week, you'll see us at night working on curb ramps and paving. This will require us to temporarily turn off the traffic signals during the nighttime work at the OR 223 intersection with SW Cherry Street, with SW Clay Street and at the OR 99W and Rickreall Road intersection. Flaggers will help direct traffic through these intersections, drive with caution.
During the week of June 9, you can expect:
- Crews working during the day and at night.
- Sunday night through Friday morning from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m.
- Monday through Friday during the day.
- Flaggers helping direct drivers while the traffic signals are off.
- Lane and shoulder closures as needed.
- Temporary traffic shifts as needed.
- Construction noise and delays.
The traffic signals should be on and working during the day. Remember, if a traffic signal is not working and there aren't flaggers helping control traffic, the intersection turns into a four-way stop. We'll install permanent striping the following week.
Completing this work at night means less disruptions for travelers – like you!

Don't forget:
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 pedestrians, drivers and our crews.
Please DO NOT cross the barricade or caution tape. Only use the designated pedestrian access to get through the work zone.

  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 ADA curb ramps are 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.
