OR 34 Corvallis-Lebanon Highway cleanup begins, April 15

ODOT release – Expect lane closures and delays. CORVALLIS — Monday, April 15, crews begin removing debris, clearing culverts and rebuilding shoulders on OR 34 Corvallis-Lebanon Highway between Colorado Lake Drive and Peoria Road. Flood waters closed the road between Tuesday night and Friday morning. As of this afternoon (April 13), an eastbound lane remains closed at the OR 34 Bypass and the Bypass remains closed between OR 99W and OR 34. Single lane closures should be expected for at least two weeks. Heavy equipment will be regularly moving through the area. Travelers should allow extra time, expect delays, and watch for crews. Between Colorado Lake Drive and Peoria Road, the westbound right lane will be closed first, then crews will move to the eastbound right lane. Work in that section is expected to last at least a week. Work between the OR 34 Bypass and Peoria Road is scheduled to begin the week of April 22, depending on how flood waters recede and what work is needed for recovery. The multi-use path is anticipated to need repair as well. Where traffic is routed through or around a work zone, pedestrians, including those with disabilities, will also be provided routes through or around the work zone.
