Passing lane construction begins Monday near Walton
WA L T O N - Tr a v e l e r s
should expect 20-minute de-
lays along Highway 126, the
Florence-Eugene Highway
west of Walton, as crews be-
gin work to add a westbound
passing lane between Walker
Creek and Chickahominy
Creek.
Tree falling will begin next
week, starting Monday, Feb.
4, and will require traffic be
stopped and flagged through
the area for safety.
Delays should be expected
Monday through Thursday
between 7:30 a.m. and 6 p.m.
Crews will work at times on
Friday mornings between 8
a.m. and noon. There will be
no lane closures or flagging
at night or on weekends.
Centerline and shoulder
rumble strips will be added.
The $5 million project will
also replace a large culvert
pipe under the highway with
a box culvert, and include
environmental mitigation for
environmental impacts and
water quality treatment.
The entire project is sched-
uled to be completed by the
end of September 2019.
Project information is
available at www.oregon.
gov/odot/projects/pages/
project-details.aspx?proj-
ect=19661.
For updates on traffic, go
to www.TripCheck.com or
call 511.
Access for pedestrians, in-
cluding those with disabili-
ties, is available and identi-
fied through or around work
zones.

manager. “That kind of par-
ticipation shows just how
important it is to buckle up
everyone, every trip.”
In 2016 in Oregon, lack of
a safety belt or child restraint
system was a factor in 89
deaths — or 26 percent of the
343 motor vehicle occupant
fatalities.
That same year, 1,992 chil-
dren under 12 were injured
in crashes, and 10 percent
of those were reported not
using a child passenger re-
straint system.
Oregon law requires chil-
dren to ride in a rear-facing
safety seat until they are at
least two years old.
A child over age two must
continue to ride in a car seat
with harness until 40 pounds
and then in a booster until
they reach age eight or 4’ 9”
in height and the adult belt
fits them correctly.
Across the country, motor
vehicle crashes are the lead-
ing cause of death for chil-
dren ages 1 to 12 years old.
Studies show that child car
seats may increase crash sur-
vival by 71 percent for infants
under 1 year old and by up to
59 percent for toddlers ages 1
to 4.
