CONSTRUCTION CONTINUES Bridge. Most work is done off the roadway to ensure that traf- fic moves smoothly during the day. This week, crews have been working at night, but there should not be any noise distur- bance created from the work. Local residents should take note of the bridge rail cutting the week of July 31 to Aug. 5, which will create some noise during the process. • Crews continue sand blast- ing and spraying a zinc coating on the bridge, working toward the south end of the bridge. • Crews will be cutting and removing existing bridge rail on the northwest side of the bridge to install the new bridge rail. • Rail cutting will take place from 9 p.m. to 9 a.m. on Monday, July 31, and Tuesday, Aug. 1. This operation will cre- ate some noise, but requires a lane closure and can only be accomplished during the night. • Lane closures will continue during work hours, 4 a.m. to 9 a.m. Single lane closures will be used for materials transfers, bridge rail and other roadwork on the approaches to the bridge. Delays may be up to 20 minutes, but will normally be M ONDAY five minutes or less. 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 protec- tion that includes a zinc surface coating to protect the structure from corrosion. Sandblasting the bridge and spraying the zinc coating are noisy operations that must be done separately, in containment structures. For more information, visit www.Siuslawbridge.com.
