TRAFFIC ALERT: Westbound cars and trucks should expect minor delays on the Broadway Bridge this week. Starting Wednesday, April 15, one westbound lane will be closed from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. One westbound lane will be closed during those same time frames on Thursday, April 16 and Friday, April 17. One westbound lane and all sidewalks will also remain open. This work will not affect Portland Streetcar operations. Crews will need space to set up equipment for this weekend’s closure of the Broadway Bridge where crews will install final steel materials used to balance the bridge. A previous release details closure times for this weekend’s closure of the bridge.
