(April 21, 2026) The paving season continues for the Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT), as crews will start grinding and repaving an estimated 0.9 lane miles on NE 87th Avenue, between NE Glisan and NE Hassalo streets on Wednesday, April 22. 

The work is funded by Fixing Our Streets, Portland's voter-approved 10-cent gas tax and heavy vehicle use tax for fixing our streets and making them safer for all.

This neighborhood greenway is popular for people on bikes and other non-motor vehicles. Sidewalks will remain open at all times for pedestrians.

The maintenance paving crews expect to work from about 6 a.m. to 5 p.m., Mondays through Thursdays. Crews will complete one travel lane before starting on the next. The work is expected to be completed by Thursday, April 30.

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.

This work is weather-dependent, and the schedule may change.
