  Ehlen Road closure next week under the I-5 overpass
It's finally time for us to take down the old southbound I-5 bridge!
To remove the bridge safely, we'll close the section of Ehlen Road NE under the I-5 overpass.
Starting at 9 p.m. on Tuesday, July 14, until 2 p.m. on Thursday, July 16, drivers who take the northbound or southbound I-5 Exit 278 will not be able to turn left onto Ehlen Road NE from the off-ramps.
After exiting I-5, you can detour around the Ehlen Road NE closure under the overpass:
- Northbound: Ehlen Road NE → OR 551 → Arndt Road NE → Bents Road NE.
- Southbound: Ehlen Road NE → Bents Road NE → Arndt Road NE → OR 551.

 Keep our crews safe – slow down in the work zone
Other impacts you can expect:
- Crews working daily, Sunday through Thursday with occasional night and weekend work. Up to two lanes closed nightly in either direction on I-5 as needed from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m.
- Other roads in the project area to have single lane closures as needed from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m.
- Reduced speed to 55 mph in the I-5 work zone.
- Construction noise and delays.
- No lane changes are allowed where there are double white lines.
Use caution as you drive through the work zone, there are grooves in the pavement along the median shoulder.

Pay attention in work zones, 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.
