A Clackamas County sewer project will close about one mile of the I-205 multi-use path between Clackamas and Gladstone beginning today. The closure is expected to last through November of next year (*the County had a typo in their initial release!).
In order to install a new sewer pipeline, the path will be closed between SE Strawberry Lane and SE 82nd Drive in Gladstone.
According to Oregon Department of Transportation spokesperson Elizabeth Craig, there will be a signed detour in place. “The signs will direct path users to SE 82nd Drive as an alternate route during the closure.” That segment of SE 82nd has two standard vehicle lanes, a center turn lane, and 4-5 foot wide bike lanes in each direction.
For more information on the project and the path closure, contact Amy Kyle at 503-742-4561 or akyle[at]co.clackamas.or.us.
UPDATE, 9/12 at 11:45 am: This story initially stated that the closure of the path would last through November of next year. However, Clackamas County had a typo in their statement. I’ve edited the story to reflect that the closure only lasts through November of this year and I’ve moved this story to Page Two. I apologize for any confusion.
