PBOT brings some good news:
(Tuesday, March 31, 2026) The Portland Bureau of Transportation has reopened a section of NW Cornell Road earlier than expected, after clearing debris from a landslide between the two tunnels that led to a closure of the key NW Portland route on Friday.
The reopening provides direct access to the Bird Alliance facility at 5151 NW Cornell Road.
An earlier closure to the west, between NW Thompson Road and SW Skyline Boulevard, remains in place. So travelers from the west should expect to access the area via NW Skyline and NW Thompson Road. Go slow. Expect travel delays.
