TRAFFIC ALERT: This week there will be lane closures on the Hawthorne Bridge for ongoing maintenance and paving work. Expect traffic delays. 

Oct. 22

On Tuesday, Oct. 22 from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., the north westbound and center eastbound lanes will be closed on the Hawthorne Bridge. The westbound sidewalk at the end of the bridge near S.W. Main Street will also be closed during these times. A detour will route users into Tom McCall Waterfront Park. The eastbound sidewalk on the far east end of the bridge near the bus stop will be closed for ADA ramp work during these times. 

These closures are weather dependent and are subject to change. Plan ahead for your commute and use alternative routes.
