Test Busy Construction Season is Here!

We have an extremely busy summer of construction work upon us, as many public utility and roadway projects will be taking place throughout Lake Oswego. Work includes paving, sidewalk pours, curb ramps, sewer rehabilitation, water lines, pump stations, bridge repairs, traffic signal upgrades, and stormwater improvements. Some of these will result in lane closures, flaggers, or one-way traffic, others will require road closures with traffic detours in place. Most work will be taking place during the day, but some paving work will take place at night. Please be alert, drive safely, follow signage, and plan ahead for travel delays.
