Project Area
The project is located to the south end of Mississippi Avenue and the N Greeley Avenue exit ramp that runs under I-5.
Schedule
Planning work is underway, and field research is ongoing. Design work will continue through 2024. Construction is anticipated to begin in Summer 2025.
What’s Happening Now
During the week of September 11, crews will be in the neighborhood locating utilities, surveying, and taking soil samples. They will be drilling small holes in the pavement to help the project team understand conditions that crews may encounter during construction. Visit the Pre-Construction webpage for more details about these activities and what utility marking colors mean.
Night Work
Due to the size and location of the pipes, and for traffic safety reasons, some of the work will extend a few hours beyond 6:00 p.m. or will need to be done overnight. We will be using equipment that generates noise, including sewer cleaning trucks, compressors, light trucks, generators, pumps, and ventilation fans. Night work will require lighting of the work zone.
Your comments regarding the schedule to work nights are valuable, and you can submit them to the Portland Noise Office by letter, email, or phone.
