New intersection from eastbound Beltline for all Delta Highway travelers opens Thursday night!

Posted on June 8, 2021 by Gary Haliski

Be ready Friday morning! Thursday night, June 10, the new traffic signal will turn on, the new lane will open — and all traffic going from eastbound Beltline to Delta Highway will exit on the west side.

This new intersection is for all Delta Highway travelers. Delta Highway traffic will stop to allow Beltline traffic to turn north. Southbound Delta Highway travelers will also go through a traffic light, but it will only activate if there is a pedestrian crossing the ramp. We try to accommodate all modes of travel when possible on our state highways. Our design allows pedestrians and bicyclists to cross through the interchange.

Read the entire Beltline Update here.

We’ll use the survey results to inform us on issues of concern and how we can focus our outreach efforts.

Please take our two-minute survey and share what you know. As a thank you for participating, 10 people will be selected for our drawing for a $10 gift certificate at Lane County Farmer’s Market. Survey closes June 20.
