Survey: How should Oregon transportation dollars be spent?

The Rebuilding Our Transportation Vision Workgroup (Workgroup) is reviewing transportation needs, funding challenges, priorities, and tradeoffs to provide recommendations that will inform action in the 2027 legislative session. The Workgroup plans to focus these recommendations on affordability, accountability, safety, and economic vitality.

Road Closure on Brosterhous Road Begins July 27

The City of Bend is beginning construction on the Azalia and Windsor Sewer Project. Crews will be installing a new sewer main along a short portion of Brosterhous Road. To complete this work safely and efficiently, Brosterhous Road will be fully closed from the railroad undercrossing to Windsor Drive starting July 27, 2026. Construction is expected to be completed and the road re-opened by early September 2026.

Signed detours will be in place throughout the closure. The closure is being timed to coincide with school summer break.

This project is part of the City’s Septic to Sewer Program, which allows property owners in areas currently served by private onsite septic systems to apply annually to install public sewer in their neighborhoods.
