A project in Hubbard is part of a larger effort to rebuild curb ramps in various locations in the Willamette Valley and northwest coast. Oregon Department of Transportation says that its goal is to bring as many of the curbs into compliance as possible within the project budget and schedule. Workers are rebuilding approximately 55 curb ramps along OR 99E between Scholl Road NE and Industrial Avenue.

Starting July 27, expect construction noise, delays, shoulder and lane closures. The crew will work from 6 a.m to 5 p.m. Monday to Thursday. Learn about the project on the ODOT website.
