(June 12, 2025) Beginning on Monday, June 16, the Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT) will be repairing and repaving NE Prescott Street from NE 105th to 115th avenues. The work is expected to last approximately seven business days and conclude on June 25.
Maintenance crews will work from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. on business days and possibly weekends. Crews will complete one travel lane before beginning work on the opposing lane. Only TriMet buses will be allowed to move through travel lanes under construction.
This work is funded by Fixing Our Streets, the 10-cent per gallon gas tax overwhelmingly renewed by voters in May 2024. Fixing Our Streets paving dollars are focused on preventive maintenance like grind-and-inlay and sealing treatments that preserve and extend the life of our roads.
Following the paving work, the bureau plans to install speed cushions on NE Prescott Street between NE 105th and 121st avenues, also with funding from Fixing Our Streets. The speed cushion installation will be completed in the next year.
The traveling public is advised to expect delays, travel cautiously, observe all closures and directions by flaggers, and use alternate routes if possible. Local access to residences and businesses will remain available. Sidewalks will remain open at all times for pedestrians. Public transit riders should check TriMet.org for service impacts.
This work is weather-dependent, and the schedule may change.
