Watch for signs and flaggers directing traffic. <br />Over the weekend, all lanes will be open for traffic, and no closures are scheduled. <br />On Monday and Tuesday, paving will resume, closing the street to southbound traffic. <br />Southbound traffic can use Fox Hollow Road as an alternate route, or use local streets to get around <br />the construction zone. Watch for signs and flaggers directing traffic. <br />The paving work is part of a project that also included repairing 46 Avenue from Donald to <br />th <br />Willamette Street. The work is being done by Wildish Construction, under contract to the Eugene <br />Public Works Department. The estimated $1.5 million cost of the project is funded primarily by <br />Eugene’s local gas tax. <br />For more information on this and other area road projects, go to www.keepusmoving.com <br />or follow EugenePW on Twitter. <br /># # # <br /> <br /> <br />Public Works Administration ● City of Eugene ● 101 E.
