Signs will be posted <br />directing traffic around the work zone. <br />The cushioned guardrail, called a traffic attenuator, is designed to reduce the impact if a <br />vehicle hits it. The crash that damaged the attenuator was mostly likely weather related, Public <br />Works officials said. <br /># # # <br /> <br /> <br />Public Works Administration ● City of Eugene ● 101 E.
