Night paving activities on Kruse Way will be resuming for the south side lanes on Tuesday, September 8 through Friday, September 11. Night work is necessary to reduce disruptions to traffic and hazards to workers. 

• Work hours on Kruse Way are from 7 pm to 6 am. 
• Paving activities will result in lane closures, delays, and rough milled pavement. Please follow instructions from flaggers and crews. 

The City is taking proactive measures to help minimize the impacts of the emerald ash borer (EAB) – a non-native, invasive wood-boring beetle that feeds on ash trees, eventually killing them. These measures will help reduce the impacts of the loss of ash trees across the city and protect the public and City staff from ash trees as they become hazardous. 

In October, the City will begin preemptively removing approximately 150 trees from City-owned properties including parks, open spaces and facilities. The selected ash trees are near homes, utilities, paths or roads and may become hazardous once infested. Trees scheduled for removal will be marked with a red X.

Lake Oswego and the Clackamas River Water Providers are asking our customers to help keep water in the Clackamas River for the fall fish runs. River levels are significantly low right now, so let’s make sure there is enough water for the Coho and Chinook Salmon by reducing or shutting off outdoor watering. Red conservation actions:

• Reducing or shutting down all outdoor watering, spot water when needed
• Taking your car to a commercial carwash which recycles the water
• Shutting off all outdoor water features
• Not letting water run off driveways, sidewalks, or down the street

The more we can conserve, the easier this journey will be for these threatened and endangered salmon species. 

Thanks for doing your part to keep water in the Clackamas River!
