Expect nighttime lane closures and construction noise in Sisters 

Sept. 23, 2025

SISTERS, OR - Crews will soon begin upgrading curb ramps to meet ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) standards at several locations on U.S. 20 in Sisters. These improvements are part of the Bend and Sisters Curb Ramps Project.

Construction is scheduled to begin the evening of Sunday, September 28, starting with curb ramps at West Rail Way and Barclay Drive. Work will take place overnight between 8 p.m. and 7 a.m. to help reduce traffic delays during the day. During this construction hours, nearby residents and businesses may notice overnight construction noise and temporary lane restrictions.

We encourage community members to visit our website for more information and to sign up for weekly updates on construction activity.

We understand that construction can be inconvenient and appreciate your patience as we work to make our transportation system safer and more accessible for everyone.


While the funding crisis is having a profound impact on ODOT's maintenance and operations, most construction projects will continue as planned. These projects are typically funded through separate capital programs, often with state or federal funds that are legally restricted to project development and cannot be used for maintenance or day-to-day operations. Delays may still occur if our workforce is reduced. Fewer staff available for inspections, project coordination and oversight would mean some timelines may shift or face additional challenges during delivery.
