Green Light maintenance at Farewell Bend POE, I-84 westbound
Oregon Department of Transportation sent this bulletin at 05/16/2011 07:49 AM PDTThe Green Light system at the westbound I-84 Farewell Bend Port of Entry is undergoing scheduled maintenance work for the next two weeks. It could be up and running again by May 27.
The work at Farewell Bend is similar to what's underway at the I-5 southbound Woodburn POE. Technicians are installing new electronics while roadway engineers correct issues with the pavement around the weigh-in-motion scales. It makes for an unfortunate, temporary inconvenience for Green Light users, but the work will result in a much better preclearance system once all is completed.
