Murphy Corridor Improvements Project Update – June 25, 2020

Thank you for your interest in the Murphy Corridor Improvements Project.

The Murphy Corridor Improvements Project addresses safety concerns, connectivity, and mobility issues in southeast Bend. Construction of a three-lane roadway with bike lanes, sidewalks, and safe crossings is currently underway between Country Club Drive to Brosterhous Road. Construction of this phase of the project is planned to be completed in August 2020.

Construction activities for the upcoming week

• Crews will begin prepping sidewalks and curbs
• Continue placing embankment fill on the extension area from Brosterhous Road to BNSF tracks
• Crews will continue constructing the subgrade for Murphy Road

• Westbound traffic detour on Murphy Road between Brosterhous Road to Country Club Drive.
