Sewer construction to close SW Terwilliger Boulevard south of SW Castleridge Lane starting Monday, December 5

Sewer construction will close SW Terwilliger Boulevard between Highway 43 and SW Castleridge Lane beginning at 7 a.m. on Monday, December 5. This segment of SW Terwilliger will be closed 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for up to eight months.

A signed detour will direct traffic to use SW Taylors Ferry Road and Highway 43 around the construction area. The traveling public is advised to expect delays, follow directions from flaggers, and observe the detour or use an alternate route, sticking to major arterials and avoiding neighborhood streets if possible.

Go to www.portlandoregon.gov/bes/SWTerwilliger for maps and more information about the project.

This work is part of the SW Terwilliger Boulevard Sewer Project, which will construct about 7,600 feet of public sewer pipe and provide connections to private properties currently not served by the public sewer system. The project will help protect water quality, public health, and the environment.
