Kirtland Road/OR 140 Full Weekend Closure Begins Tomorrow (Friday) At 6 P.m. (Photo) -07/22/21

CENTRAL POINT: Oregon 140/Kirtland Road will be closed to through traffic this weekend beginning tomorrow night, (July 23) at 6 p.m. through Monday (July 26) at 6 a.m. 

The road closure will affect all traffic between White City and Interstate 5-Exit 35, near Central Point. An ODOT contractor requires the full closure to upgrade the Whetstone Creek Bridge and the highway surface leading up to the bridge. Drivers can expect this full closure for the next four weekends.

Flaggers will be stationed at the closures at Blackwell Road on the west and West Antelope Road on the east. Drivers will be directed to alternate routes. 

The bridge closure is part of a $4.3 million construction upgrade to the highway
