A contractor for ODOT will conduct exploratory work on culverts in the Florence area this week, creating intermittent lane restrictions on Quince Street and US 101. Beginning Thursday, April 9, 2015 and continuing through Friday, April 10, the contractor will be closing lanes on Quince Street, between 10th Street and US 101, and on northbound US 101, between 12th Street and 28th Street. The closures could occur between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Thursday, and between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m. on Friday. During the lane closures, motorists will be directed to the available lane of travel via electronic reader boards. No significant delays are expected. The culvert exploration is associated with a project to replace the storm drain liner beneath Quince Street and install a culvert liner beneath US 101. Construction of that project will occur in September.
