Project overview
The Water Bureau is investing in reliable water service in North Portland. We will replace 1,800 feet of water main (pipe) with earthquake-resistant pipe and install six hydrants on North Schmeer Road.
|
|
We're paving before we clean up the project site.

Construction happening now
The new water main (pipe) has been installed and connected to service lines. Now we will clean up the project site. Crews will:
- Permanently repave roads where holes were dug to access the pipe
- Pour concrete to repair curbs and sidewalks impacted by construction
- Restore vegetation that was disturbed during construction
|
|
|
This project requires road closures on North Schmeer Road between North Vancouver Avenue and North Whitaker Road.
 Crews are permanently repaving roads starting the week of July 28, 2025. Work is expected to last about one week. Timelines are dependent on weather and scheduling.
What to expect during paving
- Rough roads, intermittent lane closures, and detour route changes
- Traffic delays up to 20 minutes during work hours
- Limited access for business deliveries
- Restricted parking in the work zone
- Pedestrian access will remain open
- Dust, noise, vibrations, and heavy equipment near the work site
Detour routes will change as work progresses. Please keep our crews safe by following all traffic control signs and flaggers while travelling through or near work zones. Stay alert and use caution as traffic may suddenly slow or stop.
