Bridge
continued from page 1A
Larsen said. “We have a lot of fin
ish work around the edges, but
we’re very close to being func
tionally done.”
Larsen’s best estimate in Sep
tember 1998 was that the project
would be finished in January
2000 if all went well. He now pre
dicts the project will last another
two to three weeks and will finish
under deadline.
City Councilor Bobby Lee,
whose district includes the Ferry
Street Bridge area, said he has
been dealing with concerns about
the bridge since he was an under
graduate at the University eight
years ago.
“If the Ferry Street Bridge were
to come down in an earthquake,
the local economy would be shut
down,” Lee said. “I strongly be
lieve that you have to reinvest in
infrastructure. This was a good in
vestment and a worthwhile pro
ject.”
During construction, the 49
year-old bridge could not accom
modate the nearly 64,000 vehicles
that cross it each day, and as a re
sult city officials urged com
muters to seek alternative routes.
Lee said the most common
complaints he receives come from
residents in the Ferry Street
Bridge area concerned traffic in
creases in their neighborhood.
“We need to let people know
that they can’t drive through
neighborhoods to avoid the Ferry
Street Bridge traffic,” Lee said.
Although construction is wind
ing to a halt, commuters can still
get stuck in the occasional traffic
jam. Sophomore MacGregor
Shaw, who lives in the Chase Vil
lage apartment complex near
Autzen Stadium, crosses the Fer
ry Street Bridge on his way to class.
“When there is construction go
ing on in the area I try to leave
about ten to 15 minutes earlier
than I normally would,” Shaw
said. “Even though traffic is not as
bad as it used to be, I’ll be happy
when it’s finally finished.”
Lee said he has seen a sharp de
crease in complaints lately because
construction is nearly finished.
“Most people don’t complain
any more,” Lee said. “They just
don’t use the bridge.”
For all the pain and suffering
Eugene residents went through to
enjoy the $30 million project, Lee
said he thinks it was all worth it.
“Yes there are headaches and
problems,” Lee said. “But when
you look at the big picture, it is
the right thing to do.”
Lane county

State of the County Address.
After introducing his wife and
children, who were present along
with nearly 200 other people,
Green stressed the importance of
family and highlighted the board’s
achievements during the past year.
“Let’s all continue to work to
gether to achieve the prize — a
Lane County that is better for fam
ilies today than yesterday. A bet
ter Lane County tomorrow than
today,” Green said.
After Green’s comments, the
board elected Commissioner Pe
ter Sorenson to serve as chair dur
ing the 2000-2001 year and Com
missioner Anna Morrison to vice
chair. Both are one-year leadership
positions on the board, a five-mem
ber panel that legislates and admin
isters county government.
Among the county services
that Green mentioned, health and
family services topped the list.
This year, the county received
grants from the state and the U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Lane County Board pf Commissioners Chair, Bobby Green, delivered the State of the
County Address to a full crowd in Harris Hall Wednesday morning.
Services to create county health
programs, said Patricia Rogers, di
rector of the Commission on Chil
dren and Families.
Rogers said one program to be
expanded by the grants is a “com
munity safety net,” which will be
composed of community mem
bers helping families resolve con
flicts and avert crises.
Green’s chief goal for the
board’s next year was to listen
more attentively and respond to
families.
“My specific challenge is that
for every month in the new year,
every county department and
each county commissioner docu
ments and describes an example
that proves that you have listened
and responded to Lane County
families,” Green said.
