In order to pave the ramps, shoulders and new auxiliary lanes on OR 217, we are closing a section of OR 217 south between Canyon Road and OR 99W starting tomorrow, Friday night, June 6, at 9 p.m. and ending Monday morning, June 9, by 5 a.m.

Here's what you need to know:

All southbound lanes of OR 217 will close for the weekend from Canyon Road to OR 99W:
- Starting Friday night, June 6, at 9 p.m. to Monday morning, June 9, by 5 a.m.
- All southbound drivers will exit OR 217 at Canyon Road.
- The following southbound ramps will also close for the weekend:
  - Beaverton-Hillsdale Highway on-ramp.
  - Allen Boulevard off-ramp.
  - Denney Road on-ramp.
  - Hall Boulevard off-ramp.
  - Hall Boulevard on-ramp.

  - Greenburg Road on-ramp.
  - OR 99W off-ramp.
- Detour is via U.S. 26, I-405, and I-5 through Portland.

This is the second of five weekend directional closures needed to pave OR 217 over the spring and summer. This means all lanes and on- and off-ramps in one direction in the project area will close multiple weekends.

Additional directional closures to complete paving are scheduled for the weekends of June 20 (southbound), and June 27 (northbound), weather permitting.

During the weekend work, crews will pave the ramps, shoulders, and new auxiliary lanes. The remaining lanes within the project area will be paved during nighttime lane closures.

Paving is dependent on weather and equipment availability, which means details may change suddenly. Please check the project website and your inbox regularly for the most up-to-date information.

Temporary striping will be in place until the pavement cures and then the contractor will install final striping. The new auxiliary lanes may not open right away -- crews might still need to use them to finish work along the shoulders and side slopes.
