CHANDLER BRIDGE CLOSED TWO WEEKENDS IN JUNE  
  
Coos River Highway (Oregon 241) will close at Chandler Bridge for two weekends in June due to a painting and repair project.  
  
The first 55-hour closure is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. on Friday, June 12, and will continue until 1 a.m. on Monday, June 15. The second closure will follow the same hours, Friday night to Monday morning, June 19-22.  
  
During the closures, travelers from the east end of Coos River Highway can detour along East Bay Road and U.S. 101 to reach Coos Bay and North Bend.  
  
The highway closures will allow workers to paint sections of the bridge that are inaccessible when vehicles are moving along the travel lanes.  
  
Traffic across the bridge is currently limited to a single lane, with a temporary signal providing traffic control. Most delays are around five minutes or less.  
  
Minnesota-based Abhe & Svoboda, Inc., is the prime contractor on the $7.29 million project. All work is scheduled for completion in September.  
  
Chandler Bridge opened in 1952 and is located about three miles east of downtown Coos Bay. The paint on the truss is peeling and much of the steel is covered in rust.  
  
For more information, visit the project webpage or contact ODOT Public Information Officer Dan Latham at 541-817-5200. Featured News by City of Coos Bay
