From PBOT:
(Tuesday, Jan. 21, 2025) The Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT) advises the traveling public that an upgrade to a section of the Better Naito bike and pedestrian path under the Burnside Bridge will require a detour for bike and pedestrian traffic for several weekdays, starting on Wednesday.
The work and detour are expected to continue from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. for up to five weekdays -- with no weekend closures.
No closures to the northbound travel lane and no impacts to vehicle traffic on SW Naito Parkway are anticipated.
Crews with PBOT's contractor, T-Edge Construction Inc, are scheduled to begin installing concrete separators as early as Wednesday.
They are expected to install about 210 feet of concrete separators along the outer edge of the two-way multiuse path, from SW Ankeny to the Burnside Bridge. The separators are intended to provide protection for people biking and walking, while requiring less maintenance than movable bollards that were previously used in this section of the path.
What to expect during construction
People biking, walking or riding an e-scooter on SW Naito Parkway near the Burnside Bridge will be temporarily re-routed to the path in Gov. Tom McCall Waterfront Park. People biking may want to consider using alternate routes.
The public is advised to expect delays and travel cautiously for the safety of work crews and travelers in the area.
Please obey all traffic control signs and directions from construction staff.
Construction hours will be Monday through Friday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
This work is weather-dependent, and the schedule may change.
