U.S. Highway 20 road improvements planned for 2022

July 30, 2021

HARPER - Repairs to U.S. 20 (Central Oregon Highway), between Warm Springs Road and Harper Junction, will address pavement deterioration in 2022. U.S. 20 provides essential access for freight traveling east and west through Oregon. Pavement has reached the end of its life and is deteriorating below the surface.

To avoid extensive maintenance in the future, we will repave the roadway. The project includes reconstructing bridge approaches, upgrading guardrails and applying a protective chip seal to protect the new pavement.

'This project will improve road conditions and safety for all travelers,' said ODOT Project Manager Sean Maloney.

Project design is happening this year, with construction scheduled for 2022.
