Willamette River Crossing Project Update - January 2020

• Come hear our project overview and briefing at February’s Downtown Neighborhood Association meeting. This is an ADA-accessible facility.
  • 7-8:30 p.m., Tuesday, February 25
    First Congregational Church, Fellowship Hall
    1126 SW Park Ave.
• Will be upcoming traffic updates.
• Here’s a quick recap of developments so far:
  • This project will place a water main deep under the Willamette River for earthquake protection, instead of the current crossings with water pipes on bridges.
  • We’ll use a geotechnical probe to establish the underground path for the water main.
  • We’ve done advance soil sampling to help guide the probe.
  • Both the probe and the water main installation will start on the west side of the river and proceed to the east side.
