COURTESY PHOTO
This photo, taken after the rock wall was completed in 1931, shows the view overlooking Heceta Head Lighthouse.
he rebuilding of a
historic rock wall
along Highway 101,
just north of Sea Lion Caves,
at milepost 179, will begin
next week, creating a con-
struction zone that will
require a single lane closure
and flagging 24 hours per day
until the project is completed
in April 2016.
Located
approximately
nine miles north of Florence,
the original wall was con-
structed in 1931.
Over time, the wall has lost
its integrity in several places.
This project will increase
the height and restore the
integrity and the aesthetic
appearance of a portion of the
historic rock retaining wall
T
Oregon was awarded the low-
bid contract of $2.6 million.
The Rock Wall project will
be one of several October
work zones between Florence
and Yachats.
During the month of
October, travelers between
Florence and Yachats should
plan additional time for the
trip between the two cities.
Heading
north
from
Florence,
travelers
will
encounter:
• Several work zones asso-
ciated with a two-year paving
and curve widening project
taking place between mile-
posts 179 and 184.
Crews on that project will
be working days, nights and
weekends to meet a Saturday,
along the ocean side of the
highway.
This section of Highway
101 is a designated scenic
highway in Oregon.
The Sea Lion Point Rock
Wall is one of four designated
rockwork sites on Highway
101, and is the second longest
of these types of features.
It is the only designated
rockwork feature in Lane
County.
The Sea Lion Point Rock
Wall is a good example of a
rock feature constructed at the
time.
The project will also
replace the bridge rail on a
half-viaduct
near
Cape
Perpetua, at milepost 166.

Oct. 31, contract deadline.
• The 24-hour-per-day
single lane closure at the Sea
Lion Point Rock Wall at mile-
post 178.
• Intermittent single lane
closures and flagging at a
slide mitigation project at
milepost 177.
Crews say this project will
be completed by mid-
October.
While most of the work
zones are short in length,
resulting in short travel
delays, the cumulative effect
of the work zones may create
a total delay of a half-hour or
more.
Travelers are advised to
add extra time to their travel
schedules.
