Galveston Ave and Riverside Blvd Project Closure Changes in Bend

0

In listening to the business community along Galveston Avenue, the City has decided to make a change to the schedule of the project. Through these changes, the intersection of Galveston Ave. and Riverside Blvd. will re-open on September 17. The Tumalo Avenue portion of the project will remain closed as will Riverside Blvd south of the Galveston Ave. intersection.

This change will allow for East-West traffic access from downtown Bend to Galveston Ave.

City Manager, Eric King asked for this change after a careful review of the reported impacts to the businesses along Galveston Ave. The review included City staff, elected officials and affected businesses.

In reaching this decision Eric King has said, “City Council and Staff recognized that our outreach efforts to the businesses primarily impacted by the project fell short of what was necessary for them to adequately plan.”
