Traffic Advisory Lane closure at SE Grand Avenue Market Street, and Grand Avenue Salmon Street
Environmental Services has closed lanes on SE Grand Avenue for emergency repairs due to unstable soils affecting the roadway. The closure at SE Grand Avenue and SE Salmon Street will last until November 14, while the second closure between SE Stephens Street and SE Market Street is set to end on October 23. Motorists should expect delays, but northbound traffic will have at least two lanes open. The repairs are part of the Grand Avenue Risers Stabilization Project, which addresses long-term soil instability that has resulted in an uneven roadway. Local access to residences and businesses will remain open, and sidewalks will be available for pedestrians.
Parking restrictions will be in place near the work zones to ensure safety. Public transit riders should check TriMet. org and PortlandStreetcar. org for potential service impacts. Cooperation and patience are appreciated as crews work on these important repairs.
