ODOT release – DOUGLAS COUNTY – INTERSTATE 5 (Pacific Highway), MP 118-113, Roberts Mountain paving and climbing lanes ($26 million) – This project (www.RobertsMountain.com) will pave five miles of I-5 and build climbing lanes on the northbound and southbound approach to Roberts Mountain. Construction will continue until summer 2021. On Roberts Mountain (MP 118-116), the I-5 speed limit has been reduced to 55 mph in the southbound direction. The southbound shoulder is closed in this area. Trucks should use the right lane in both northbound and southbound directions. Throughout the work zone, watch for intermittent lane and shoulder closures, and for construction vehicles entering and exiting the travel lanes. Starting Tuesday, May 5, a short section of Roberts Mountain Road at milepost 3 (near the south foot of the mountain) will be limited to a single lane of traffic. The closure will be in place for several months as workers build a retaining wall. A temporary signal will provide traffic control. Roberts Mountain Road motorists should expect brief delays.
