PROJECT UPDATE
Nighttime paving will close local road approaches in Green District this week
May 4, 2026
Drivers in the Green District should watch for nighttime road closures and detours this week as ODOT and prime contractor Rocky Mountain Construction pave local road approaches at two Oregon 42 intersections.
Paving work is scheduled from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. each night, though the contractor may adjust the hours and set up traffic control devices ahead of time.
Local detours will be provided at each of the four locations:
-
Carnes Road (Monday night, May 4): When the south end of Carnes Road is closed at the highway for paving, local drivers can detour along Happy Valley Road and Old Highway 99 to connect with Oregon 42.
-
Roberts Creek Road (Tuesday night, May 5): When the north end of Roberts Creek Road is closed at the highway, local drivers can detour through Brittney Avenue and Grange Road to connect with Oregon 42.
-
Old Highway 99 (Wednesday night, May 6): When Old Highway 99 is closed at the Oregon 42 intersection, local drivers can use Happy Valley Road and Carnes Road to reach Oregon 42.
-
Grant Smith Road (Thursday night, May 7): When the west end of Grant Smith Road is closed at the highway, drivers can take Ingram Drive, Speedway Road and Old Hwy 99 to reach Oregon 42.
Most approaches are fairly short, about 20-30 feet, and may be completed before sunrise. The Old Highway 99 approach is much longer, and will likely take the full night.
On Monday night, work crews will also pave the approach at Landers Avenue and part of the multi-use path. Local drivers are advised to use alternate routes.
Paving schedules are subject to change without notice, but ODOT will attempt to keep the local community informed of any changes. Drivers are encouraged to watch roadside message boards at each end of the work area.
Ramp closures
On Tuesday and Wednesday nights, May 5 and May 6, the northbound off-ramp at Exit 119 (Winston) is scheduled to be closed 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. for deep pavement repairs.
Trucks are advised to continue north to Exit 124 (Harvard) and turn around to reach Exit 119 from the southbound direction. Smaller vehicles can use nearer I-5 interchanges to turn around.
