3 A
Bridge work to enter Larson named new School Resource Officer
next span this week
Crews are moving contain-
ment structures south on the
bridge as they complete span 9
and prepare to begin work on
span 12.
Construction hours are
expected to run from 6 a.m.
until 7 p.m., with limited noise
generating activity over the
next several weeks.
Some touch-up work may
be needed as cleanup on span
9 is finished.
Expect lane closures during
daylight hours.
While most work is moving
to the south end of the bridge,
there will continue to be a
staging yard near the north
end.
The Siuslaw River Bridge
Cathodic Protection Project is
repairing damaged concrete,
replacing bridge railings and
constructing sidewalk features
at the bridge ends.
A major portion of the proj-
ect is to install cathodic pro-
tection that includes a zinc sur-
face coating to protect the
structure from corrosion.
Sandblasting the bridge and
spraying the zinc coating are
noisy operations that must be
done separately, in contain-
ment structures.
The project is scheduled to
be completed in March 2019.
More information on the
project is available at www.
