W 18th Ave, between City View and Chambers:  Major reconstruction of the north half (west bound lane and part of the center lane) of W 18th Ave from City View to Chambers will be ongoing this week. Traffic will be shifted into narrow lanes on the south half of the street.  The north half of the intersections of Cleveland, Arthur, Garfield, Hayes and Grant will be closed to all traffic.  Concrete pavement is being replaced in sections east of Chambers under the Westmoreland Park bike bridge, also shifting traffic into narrow lanes. Eastbound and westbound W 18th traffic will be maintained, but drivers should expect heavy delays and use alternate routes when possible. Work hours will be 7:00 am to 9:00 pm this week, with a 4:00 am to 7:00 am concrete pavement pour anticipated on Wednesday or Thursday morning.  Arthur St will be closed to all traffic at W 18th Ave Monday through Friday.

13th Ave from Alder St to Washington St:  Project clean up is scheduled for this week, weather permitting. Watch for construction equipment traffic, lane closures, and lane shifts.  At least one lane of traffic will be allowed at all times. Expect moderate delays, and use alternate routes if possible.

11th Ave, between Garfield and Tyinn St:  Project clean up is scheduled for this week, weather permitting.  This work will be done at night between the hours of 7:00 pm and 7:00 am.  Watch for construction equipment traffic, lane closures, and lane shifts.  Two-way traffic will be allowed at all times.  Expect slight delays during night work hours.

Miscellaneous U of O projects:  Southbound Agate will be closed between Franklin Blvd and 13th Ave due to addition of a right turn lane.  Agate St will be closed between 13th and 15th Ave for the construction of a new pedestrian island crosswalk. Moss St at 15th Ave and vicinity will have heavy truck traffic due to various surrounding construction projects, but significant road closures are not anticipated.  Franklin Blvd will have various lane closures in the turn pocket/median areas at Walnut St, Orchard St, Villard St, and Agate St.  These lane closures are to allow additional turn lane pockets to accommodate increased traffic in the arena area.
