A section of River Road in The Dalles will be closed for about two hours on Saturday morning to accommodate the move of a large transformer towards the Celilo Convertor Station. The move will start at seven Saturday morning, moving from Taylor Lakes Road to a staging area about a half-mile south down River Road. That section of River Road will be closed for about two hours, and access to Taylor Lakes will be cut off as well. Motorists needing to enter the majority of the Port of The Dalles during that time can do so from the south via Webber Street. Flaggers will be staged along River Road on both sides of the move…as well at the intersections of River Road and Crates Way and River Road and Columbia Road.
