Nighttime ramp closures are scheduled for Interstate 5 in Creswell, with work set to begin on October 20. The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) announced that the northbound I-5 on-ramp from Cloverdale Road will be closed nightly from October 20 through October 22. Work will take place between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m.
Travelers affected by the closure can use OR 99 to travel north toward Goshen during these times. ODOT advises that some aspects of the construction are dependent on weather conditions, which could affect the schedule.

The department encourages drivers to exercise caution in work zones, reminding motorists that fines double in all Oregon work zones regardless of whether workers or signs are present. “Pay attention in work zones, slow down and move over – imagine this is where you work. Always drive safely, watch for construction signs and workers.”
