32 | 2024-11-11T19:41:49+00:00 | Portland Bureau of Environmental Services <PortlandBES@info.portland.gov> | West Lents Floodplain Restoration Project Update: November 11, 2024 | What's Happening Now Official construction work will not begin until March 2025. However, the City's contractor for the Springwater Wetlands and Floodplain Restoration Project continues to use West Lents as an ecological restoration and barrow pit site. The traveling public should expect high volumes of large dump trucks transporting soil, gravel, and other building materials between the sister sites. Crews have built wheel-washing systems at multiple work zones. Watering roads and gravel trails will minimize dust and help reduce chances of transporting invasive species and other pollutants. All work is weather-dependent and subject to change due to contractor availability. JULY - NOVEMBER 2024 Daytime work hours are Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the following three access locations: - SE 82nd Avenue, south of the Springwater Corridor Trail - SE 83rd Avenue, along SE Lambert Street - SE 89th Avenue at SE Crystal Springs Blvd Veterans' Day Closure While construction work continues on this day, please note that some City of Portland offices and facilities will be closed on Monday, November 11, in observance of Veterans' Day holiday. Thanksgiving Break Closure Construction work will not take place on Thursday, November 28 and Friday, November 29, in observance of the Thanksgiving holiday.
