TILLAMOOK COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS ROAD CLOSURE: Full Miami Foley Road Closure on August 12

Miami Foley Road Bridge Replacements: Dry Creek and Crystal Creek

​​​This week we’re bringing in a large crane to set the beams for the new Crystal Creek and Dry Creek Bridges on Miami Foley Road. To do this work safely, we need to fully close the road for the day, August 12th.

During the closure, you can expect:

• Miami Foley Road to close from Crystal Creek to Dry Creek from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.
• A detour around the closure using U.S. 101.
• Crews working during the day.
• Construction noise and delays.

We plan to reopen a single lane of Miami Foley Road by 4 p.m. the same day.

What to expect after August 12:

• Crews working during the day.
• A single lane open with a temporary traffic signal helping guide traffic.
• Construction noise and delays.
• One more full road closure at Crystal Creek later this year.

We’ve been working on Miami Foley Road to replace the Crystal Creek temporary bridge and the Dry Creek culvert with two new permanent bridges.

Usually, we keep a road closed for the duration of a project when we’re building a new bridge – but we’re doing this project a little different.

We’re building each bridge one lane at a time to reduce traffic impacts. This means you’ll be able to get through the work zone on a single lane most of the time during construction work.

Funding information

While ODOT’s funding crisis is having a profound impact on maintenance and operations, most projects will continue. These projects are typically funded through separate programs, often with state or federal funds that are legally restricted to project development and cannot be used for maintenance or day-to-day operations. For more information on ODOT’s funding crisis, visit our website.

Pay attention in the work zone, slow down and move over – imagine this is where you work. Always drive safely, watch for construction signs and workers. Remember that fines double in all Oregon work zones, whether workers and signs are present or not.
