An ODOT contractor is beginning work this month on a project on I-5 southbound from Carman Drive to Lower Boones Ferry Road. The fourth lane of I-5 southbound that currently tapers off just south of the Carman Drive off-ramp will be extended past the interchange to connect with the existing exit-only lane for Lower Boones Ferry Road. This will help reduce rear-end crashes in this heavily congested section of I-5, thus increasing traffic flow. Any lane closures on I-5 will occur during nighttime work hours. Project completion is slated for August 2012.
The attached newsletter has more information and will be mailed to approximately 3000 nearby residents and businesses. Please feel free to pass this information along to others who may be interested. We're looking forward to a successful project.
