We're coming to a curb ramp near you!
This week, we're working in the area saw cutting and doing other work to prepare for our ADA curb ramp construction project.
This work can be loud and may require occasional shoulder and lane closures.
|
About the project
Whether you drive, ride, walk or roll, we are committed to providing the best accessibility possible to all people using our highways, including on OR 47.
When construction starts, you can expect:
- Crews working mostly during the day, Monday through Friday.
- Occasional night work as needed.
- Shoulder and lane closures as needed.
- Flaggers helping direct traffic as needed.
- Delays and construction noise.
- Businesses to remain open during construction.

Why are ADA curb ramps important?
ADA curb ramps make it easier for people to move between the sidewalk and road. This can be helpful for those who have trouble stepping up and down high curbs. It's also helpful for people using wheelchairs, strollers, walkers, hand carts and bicycles.
By making curb ramps gently slope to the road, it improves accessibility and makes it easier for everyone to get around, whether they have a disability or not.

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: fines double in all Oregon work zones, whether workers and signs are present or not.
