The Weekly Road & Traffic Report for August 17 to August 23, 2024, serves as a vital resource for residents of Redmond, Oregon, detailing ongoing road closures and construction activities that may impact travel. Notable projects include partial closures on SW Cascade Ave and SW Deschutes Ave, both part of a Capital Improvement Project by Keeton King Contracting, LLC, which is set to continue until August 30. Other projects, such as intermittent shoulder work on SW 4th Street and night work on 9th Street, further highlight the city's efforts to improve its infrastructure. The report also provides contact information for project managers, offering residents a direct line for inquiries and updates.
