Highway 197 Bridge Reopens

Posted on by mbailey

The Highway 197 Bridge at The Dalles reopened just before 2 p.m. Monday after its planned morning reopening following a weekend closure was delayed due to complications in the deck replacement process over the weekend.   According to the Oregon Department of Transportation, a part of the bridge was damaged while removing one of the old bridge deck sections, and had to be repaired before any work could continue or traffic go over it.  The repairs included welding, which was complicated by cold and snowy weather.  In addition, ODOT officials say while they were expecting snow, the conditions were icier than predicted…causing delays in the transport of the new bridge deck pieces from the fabrication yard in Washington to the bridge itself.

CCA Looks To Community Input In Developing Strategic Plan

Posted on by mbailey

Hood River’s Columbia Center for the Arts is embarking on a community process to develop a five-year strategic business plan.  CCA was seriously impacted by the pandemic, nearly spending down an operational reserve fund of about $250,000 and suspending operations.  CCA board president Genevieve Scholl says they are planning community outreach meetings in January in an effort to make sure the plan is informed by what the community wants.  The organization’s major asset is its ownership of the building itself on Cascade Avenue.  Scholl expects a schedule of outreach meetings will be released soon.

TD Public Works Asks For Help During Snow Events

Posted on by mbailey
The Dalles Public Works Department is preparing its equipment to respond to winter storm events, but its resources will be stretched to capacity once the snows begin, so the department is asking for the public’s help.  Citizens will be asked to shovel and/or sand sidewalks adjacent to their homes or businesses.  They ask for safe passage to be cleared within the first two hours of daylight each day.  Shoveled snow must be piled on private property, not on the street, except in the downtown area.  Then help a neighbor clear the sidewalk in front of their home.  Snow that has accumulated on cars that are parked on city streets should be removed so that City plow operators will see the parked cars.  You can call a contractor or contact a volunteer organization before the snow flies if you need help with snow removal.  For more snow response information and a flyer about safe sidewalks and snow shoveling safety go to thedalles.org or call Public Works at (541) 296-5401.
