Work Schedule December 21 through January 2, 2006The Hollywood sewer project will slow down for the holidays with the following days or limited or no work Friday December 22 - limited work Saturday December 23 through Tuesday December 26 - No work scheduled Saturday December 30 through Tuesday January 2 - No work scheduled Wednesday, January 3 - sewer crews resume normal work schedules. January - Streetscape work is scheduled to start in Hollywood Between now and December 29 work is expected in these areas:
NE 42nd Avenue finished: The work that closed NE 42nd Avenue from Broadway to Sandy was finished Tuesday, December 19 and normal vehicle and bus traffic was restored at that time. All work on 42nd was completed, including final paving; however, there will be additional work at the intersection of 42nd & Broadway to complete storm pipes and catch basins. Tri-Met buses are running on normal routes and stops throughout the project area. Happy holidays. Thank you for your patience. Enjoy the sewer work holiday! Work Scheduled December 8 through 22, 2006These are the areas where work is expected the next two weeks:
Project Update December 5, 2006Sewer work in the 1700 block of NE 42nd Avenue started today, a day earlier than expected. This is the block of 42nd between Broadway and Sandy. Traffic is being detoured via Broadway, 43rd, and Sandy. This detour will be in effect all hours. After work hours the street will remain closed to through traffic but will be open for local access to driveways. Work has started at NE 42nd & Broadway and will move toward Sandy, so the best local access is currently via the Sandy (north) end. Tri-Met busses will follow a different detour: Southbound #75 busses will turn left from 42nd to Tillamook, right on 43rd, and right on Broadway and back to 42nd. Northbound busses will follow the same route. Both northbound and southbound #75 bus stops at 42nd & Sandy will be closed until work is complete on 42nd. Riders should board at 42nd & Tillamook. Work Schedule December 4 through 11, 2006Work is expected in a number of areas this week and next:
Project Update December 12, 2006Work on the Hollywood Sewer Reconstruction Project will close the 1700 block of NE 42nd Avenue at all hours for about two weeks. The work and detour may start as soon as Wednesday, December 6. The block, between NE Sandy Boulevard and NE Broadway, is an arterial street and the route of the #75 Tri-Met bus. During work in this block, all through traffic will be detoured, and the detour will remain in effect all hours and all days until the work is completed. Local access will be maintained for the residents and businesses in the block. The work will not require lane closures in Sandy. Northbound traffic from 42nd will be detoured right onto Broadway at 42nd, left onto NE 43rd Avenue, and left onto NE Sandy Boulevard. Southbound traffic will follow the same detour route. Buses and trucks may have to use NE Tillamook Street and NE 43rd Avenue north of Sandy to avoid tight turns. Traffic signals along the detour route will be adjusted to provide adequate time for traffic to clear the signals at NE 43rd & Sandy and NE 42nd & Broadway. No parking signs will be posted near some intersections to allow more room for vehicles to turn. The 24-hour closure is being used to minimize confusion that might result from changing the traffic patterns each day. It will also shorten the duration of the work by allowing crews to work without moving equipment and materials in and out of the work area each day. Please call or email if you have questions or concerns. Work Scheduled for November 27 through December 1, 2006Work is expected in these areas:
The work on this block of NE 42nd Avenue will be done with the street completely closed all hours (it will not re-open to traffic at night). Southbound 42nd Avenue traffic will be detoured left on Sandy, right on 43rd, right on Broadway and left back onto 42nd. Northbound traffic, vice versa. Southbound Tri-Met busses and other large vehicles will be detoured from 42nd left onto Tillamook, right onto 43rd, right on Broadway and left back to 42nd. The 24-hour closure is being approved for at least two reasons:
The work on 42nd is expected to take about one week to complete, not including final paving. Construction Update: November 16 - November 26Overall a light schedule between now and Thanksgiving. No work Thanksgiving week Thursday through Sunday. Enjoy the holiday and the lack of construction. Work will continue mostly in two areas:
Construction Update November 3 - 13, 2006 Work is scheduled both north and south of Sandy Boulevard through November 13. South of Sandy: Crews should finish building the main sewer in NE Broadway to 43rd today (Friday) or Monday. Then, they will turn north on 43rd, restoring traffic to Broadway. That crew expects to be on 43rd, working from Broadway toward Hancock, most of next week. Then, they are scheduled to move to the short block of NE 41st Avenue between Broadway and Sandy. Traffic control: As work moves off Broadway, normal traffic and bus routes will be restored to Broadway. There will still be steel plates or temporary pavement in Broadway from 40th to 43rd. On 43rd, the street will be closed to through traffic during work hours. Shoppers headed for Trader Joe's or other 43rd Avenue destinations will have to enter and leave from the end of the street where there is no work going on. Traffic will be restored after hours, but some on-street parking will be lost due to equipment and material storage. North of Sandy: Work will continue along NE 39th Avenue next week. Crews will finish installing laterals on 39th from Broadway to Hancock in the next day or two. Then, they will work next week to install storm sewer pipes and inlets in the intersections of NE 39th with Hancock and Broadway. Around next Friday, this crew is scheduled to move to NE 41st to begin installing laterals between Sandy and Hancock. Veterans Day Parade, Saturday November 11: At this time no work is scheduled for Saturday, November 11. No work or storage is expected along the parade route streets. NE 40th from Tillamook to Sandy, and Sandy from 40th to 48th will be clear for the parade. Construction Update - October 20, 2006 Work on the Hollywood Sewer Project is scheduled to continue in three areas from October 23 to November 3. Here is the current schedule:
A-Boy) to NE 43rd Avenue. This work will start at 40th as early as Monday October 23 and continuing west to east through November 3. Traffic Control During work on streets like 39th and 41st, streets will be closed to through traffic during work hours, which are generally Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Local access is maintained for residents but delays are possible. Business access for deliveries and parking will be maintained during work hours whenever possible. If you have concerns about business access issues, contact the city inspector on-site or call Joe Annett at 503-823-2934. We will work with you to accommodate your needs. Major work on Sandy, Broadway, and 37th is complete and traffic and parking are near-normal. The streetscape project continues to work along Sandy between 13th and 35th but is not scheduled to start work in Hollywood until January. Schedule Update: Friday, October 13, 2006 The pace of sewer construction activity in Hollywood has definitely slowed, as expected. Major sewer work on Sandy Boulevard is now complete and traffic and parking are back to near-normal. The major work in Broadway west of Sandy, and in NE 37th Avenue, is also complete. There will still be construction activity in Sandy from time to time but major work on Sandy is not scheduled to resume until January, when the Sandy Boulevard Streetscaping & Resurfacing Project starts work in Hollywood. The streetscaping project is continuing along Sandy Boulevard between NE 13th and 37th Avenues. For the next two weeks, activity is expected in these areas:
Work on 40th and 41st north of Sandy is expected to resume within the next few weeks. Generally, contractor Parsons Construction has indicated that they intend to finish work north of Sandy first, then move to the areas south of Sandy. Schedule Update: Monday, October 9, 2006
Schedule Update: Thursday, September 28, 2006 Major sewer reconstruction work along Sandy Boulevard in Hollywood will be complete by next week following five and a half months of major construction. Environmental Services appreciates the cooperation and understanding of residents, businesses, shoppers, motorists during this major project. Thank you for your patience throughout this challenging period. Crews from Parsons Construction are continuing work along Sandy including asphalt paving, pouring curbs and sidewalks, moving equipment and materials, and other restoration and clean-up tasks. By next Wednesday, most of this work should be complete. Then, the focus of Hollywood Sewer Project work will move off Sandy, starting with the streets north of Sandy where work is partially complete. The most likely locations for "off-Sandy" work to resume are NE 41st Avenue between Sandy and Tillamook, and NE 39th Avenue between Broadway and Tillamook. Streetscape Project Starts in January While sewer work in Sandy is almost done, there is a lot of work in the street's future. In January, the Sandy Boulevard Streetscape and Resurfacing Project is scheduled to start work along Sandy between 37th and 47th. This project will include street, sidewalk, transit, pedestrian and stormwater improvements and will include a complete curb-to-curb resurfacing of these 10 blocks of Sandy next spring or summer. The Streetscape & Resurfacing Project is a project of the City's Office of Transportation. It is already underway along Sandy west of Hollywood, between 13th and 35th Avenues. Details are available on the City's website at: <http://www.portlandonline.com/transportation/index.cfm?c=36373>. Schedule Update: September 22, 2006 Major Sewer Work Along Sandy is Near Completion. Reconstruction of 3,000 feet of the Sandy Boulevard trunk sewer and related work is essentially complete. Restoration of Sandy between 37th and 47th is continuing and nearing completion. Also complete is reconstruction of the sewer line in NE 37th Avenue between Broadway and construction of two blocks of new sewer in NE Broadway between 35th and 37th. Completion of underground work in these areas, their restoration, and return to normal traffic should mean that these major streets and Hollywood in general will look a lot more normal than they have since construction started in mid-April. Thanks to all businesses, residents, motorists, shoppers, bus riders, bicyclists - everybody! - for your patience the past five months. Your cooperation and understanding helped the City and its contractor, Parsons Construction, complete the Sandy work on schedule. What's Next?
Work in the next two weeks will include:
Sandy Paving Notes The contractor will be sand-and-sealing many newly-paved trenches along Sandy very soon. This process involves putting down tar on the edges of the patched trench, then placing sand on top. Be careful - the tar will be sticky for several days after this process and the sand will look messy. Eventually the tar will harden and the sand will be swept up. This is a standard part of trench paving. Sandy Boulevard for now will be a network of dark-black patches against the old gray pavement. The new pavement is permanent quality and should hold up well until the street is paved curb-to-curb next year as part of the Sandy Boulevard Streetscape & Resurfacing Project. In the meantime, Parsons will be responsible for maintaining the patches. Update as of September 13, 2006 Good news: Work to rehabilitate 3,000 feet (10 blocks) of the Sandy Boulevard sewer by a "pipelining" method is complete. Five two-block-long segments were completed in less than six weeks. The 94-year-old, four-foot-diameter pipe is now lined with a 1.3" thick rigid liner. Thanks everyone for your patience and cooperation during this very busy construction period. The main work going on right now is demobilizing the lining and pumping operations from Sandy, and restoring, paving, and cleaning up the street. This process is generally moving from west to east along Sandy just as the lining work did. Sandy west of 40th is starting to look much more normal. At the east end, from 44th to 47th, crews are still removing the diversion pipes and have a lot more work to do. Overall, the major Sandy work is on schedule to be completed by mid-October. The other significant work right now is taking place on NE 37th Avenue between Broadway and Sandy. There, crews are preparing to line about 400 feet of 12-inch-diameter pipe. The lining is tentatively scheduled for early next week (September 18) but will be postponed if it is rainy. In the meantime, crews will set up diversion pipes, and there may be reduced traffic lanes on 37th as soon as Thursday, September 14. This will be the last work done by pipe-lining. Completing the work on Sandy and restoring Sandy to near-normal use is the top priority for now. The pipe-lining on NE 37th Avenue is priority #2. When work resumes "off Sandy" the most likely locations are 39th, 40th, and 41st Avenues north of Sandy. Work Scheduled September 1 - 10, 2006 Work on the Hollywood Sewer Project will continue to be concentrated along Sandy as it has been for the past month or more. As of September 1, four of the five segments of "pipe-lining" have been completed for the Sandy Boulevard sewer. About 2,400 feet of the four-foot-diameter sewer has been lined in four two-block segments. One more 600-foot-long segment remains to be lined. That final segment is along Sandy from NE 45th to NE 47th Avenue; the lining operation will be based at NE 45th. This piece is tentatively scheduled to be lined Wednesday and Thursday, September 6-7. In the meantime, restoration crews have been following the pipelining crew and restoring Sandy Boulevard behind the lining crew, working from west to east. Restoration includes restoring normal sewer connections and paving over trenches, restoring normal traffic, and overall cleanup. A lot of progress has been made:
Little work is expected beyond Sandy, other than work related to diverting sewer flows for the final section of pipelining. Once work is finished on Sandy, the contractor will probably concentrate on finishing the areas north of Sandy. This "off-Sandy" work is not likely to pick up much until at least mid-September. A word about restoration: Most areas that have been disturbed by the sewer project will be restored to the quality required by standard city specifications. An exception is areas where next year's Sandy Boulevard Streetscape project will make changes to sidewalks, crosswalks, etc. In a few of these areas, sidewalks that have been removed for sewer work will remain paved with temporary asphalt until the street project begins work in Hollywood in January 2007. In the meantime, sewer contractor Parsons Construction is responsible for maintaining the temporary surfaces. Parsons is also the general contractor for the streetscape project. August 22, 2006 Bus Schedule Update Some of our readers have pointed out - correctly - that our construction updates have been short on information about the status of bus stops. We apologize for that and offer this information, updated as of today:
The focus of work continues to be along Sandy Boulevard where a second 600-foot-long section of pipe has now been lined with a "cured-in-place" liner. The liner is now in place from 37th to 39th, and from 39th to 41st, a total of 1200 feet. The next section to be lined will be between 41st and 43rd and the lining operation will be based at the intersection of 43rd & Sandy. Three more two-block-long sections of the 48-inch-diameter Sandy sewer remain to be lined: 41st-43rd, 43rd-45th, and 45th-47th. The tentative schedule is to complete one section per week and to complete all five sections by the second week of September. The lining process comes in several stages: Setting up diversion pumps starts about a week before the liner is installed; then the liner installation; then restoration of normal service connections to the sewer; and then removal of the diversion pipes and restoration of the street. In project areas beyond Sandy, progress has been minimal because most of the contractor's resources are needed to prepare for the lining work, and then to restore following the lining work. This slow progress beyond Sandy is likely to continue into September. If resources permit, the most likely work area through the end of next week would be 39th Avenue between Tillamook and Thompson (main sewer) and 39th between Sandy and Tillamook (sewer laterals). Traffic Controls
Paving Notes: The only final paving in the project is the 3500 and 3600 blocks of Broadway, the block of 43rd from Sandy to Tillamook, and the trench across Sandy at 43rd. The curb-to-curb resurfacing of Sandy will not be done until the street project reaches Hollywood in 2007. Concrete (sidewalks, curbs, etc.) will be restored as areas are finished, but if a concrete area will be changed by the upcoming street project, it will be left as temporary asphalt paving. In other words, we will not replace concrete then tear it up within the next six months. In the meantime, we will be responsible for maintaining temporary-paved areas. Work Scheduled August 4 to August 21, 2006 The fast pace of construction will continue along Sandy Boulevard through August 21. Work will continue to move eastward and motorists may start to see some improvement in traffic patterns in the west end of the project near NE 37th Avenue.
Thanks everyone for your patience. Things will continue to be busy along Sandy through September, but we are making good progress. Work Scheduled Friday July 24 to August 4, 2006 New Phase of Sewer Work Starts on Sandy Crews will re-stripe 10 blocks of Sandy Boulevard on Monday July 24, getting ready for the next major phase of the Hollywood Sewer Project. Work on Sandy for the next two months will rebuild 10 blocks of the four-foot-diameter sewer using a method called pipe-lining. On Monday crews will start at 9 a.m. to re-stripe Sandy and move traffic lanes into the middle of the street. The re-striping is likely to continue again Tuesday morning. During the re-striping operation, traffic signals will be turned off and flaggers will control intersections. Signals will be restored after work hours. During the pipe-lining phase, traffic will be reduced to one lane in each direction adjacent to a work area that will be about four blocks long. The pipe-lining work will start at the west end with lining of a two-block segment from 37th to 39th. The work will move east as a total of five two-block segments are lined over the next two months. Pipe-lining involves the insertion of a flexible liner into the existing sewer through a manhole. The liner is filled with hot water that is circulated by pumps, helping the liner harden into a smooth, rigid and durable lining inside the sewer. Once inserted, the liner takes two to three days to harden. During this period, sewer flows are maintained by pumping. Here is work expected in the next two weeks:
Broadway and Tillamook.
Overall, it is a very busy two weeks coming up. Work Scheduled July 13 to July 24, 2006 Crews are finishing several tasks along Sandy Boulevard in preparation for starting the next major phase of Sandy Boulevard work. That will be the rehabilitation of the Sandy trunk sewer by pipe-lining, which will get underway around July 24. The last of five new eight-foot-diameter manholes was completed this week, at Sandy & 45th. The main work scheduled for next week will be near the south curb line of Sandy between NE 39th and 40th Avenues. Crews will install three manholes and connect a number of storm inlet pipes in this area. This work is expected to start Friday July 14 and last about a week. Traffic control for this phase in the 3900 block will include:
Getting Ready for Pipe-Lining: Set-up for pipe lining along Sandy is expected to start around Monday, July 24. The first two-block segment will be from 39th Avenue to 37th, and the second two-block segment will be 39th to 41st. Counting diversion pipes, four blocks will be affected by each two-block segment of lining. In pipe-lining, a flexible resin liner is inserted into the sewer through a manhole and filled with hot water circulated by pumped. The liner hardens in about two days, forming a smooth, rigid and durable lining inside the existing pipe. The good news is that this greatly decreases the amount of excavation needed to rehabilitate the pipe. The bad news is that sewer connections to the lined segment are blocked for two to three days while the liner hardens. There are basically two choices: Maintain flows by digging up the connecting "lateral" pipe and pumping the flows, OR interrupting the flows (and service) for two to three days. Properties that are connected directly to Sandy should have received information in the last few days. In the next few weeks, representatives of Parsons/RCI will be contacting businesses and property owners to develop sewer service plans for the lining period. Bottom line: Each property connected to Sandy will have a sewer service plans that meets its individual needs. The plan will be in place before the pipe lining process begins. Work Scheduled July 3 to July 12, 2006 Construction on the project is taking a three-day holiday July 2-4. Work resumes July 5. Here's a summary of what has been done since work started in mid-April:
When work resumes July 5, expect work and traffic controls to continue on Sandy through the end of September. During the same period, work will continue on the side streets north and south of Sandy. Because Sandy has been re-striped, it is not possible to fully restore normal traffic even in areas where there is no work going on. In the next two weeks, crews will work to finish work along Sandy in preparation for the lining of the Sandy Boulevard sewer in July, August and September. Work is currently centered near NE 45th & Sandy, where workers are building the last of five new 8-foot-diameter manholes that will be used during the lining process. Workers will also fill voids and rebuild north-side laterals between 45th and 47th. Special traffic control that will close NE 39th Avenue between Sandy and Broadway is tentatively planned for this Saturday, July 8. Work to build storm sewer inlets and pipes that cross 39th will require completely closing 39th for one full day starting at 7 a.m. Also coming up in the next two to three weeks will be work along the south side of Sandy between 39th and 40th. This work will require adjustments to the "jug-handle" bypass that allows eastbound Sandy traffic to turn north onto NE 40th and NE 42nd Avenues, but the northbound left turns will be maintained. Temporary Paving: All the paving in the project area is temporary except for the 3500 and 3600 blocks of Broadway, where final paving is complete. The other areas where some work has been done still have additional work to complete before final paving is scheduled. If the temporary paving in your area needs maintenance, contact me. Sandy Boulevard sewer lining schedule: Work to prepare for lining the Sandy sewer could start as early as July 17. This work will be based in the north half of Sandy and will take the north half of the street for four blocks. Traffic will be maintained on the south side of Sandy. Lining work may start as early as July 31. The first lining work is tentatively planned for 39th & Sandy - from there the sewer will be lined from 37th to 41st. Work to prepare for lining will be done on a normal work schedule, but once the lining process starts it will continue 24 hours for about three days per two-block segment. Pumps to divert flows around the area that will be lined will be set up in advance, and will run 24 hours until gravity flow is restored following the lining operation. Equipment used in the lining process includes pumps, generators, boilers to heat water, and lights. Crews will be on-site 24 hours once the lining starts. Work Scheduled June 16 to June 30, 2006 Sandy Boulevard: Work along Sandy will be concentrated near 40th and 41st. No work is expected east of 42nd. Sandy from 39th to the west should start to look a lot more normal starting June 16, as the current phase of work in Sandy/39th/Broadway is completed. Work near the south curb line of Sandy between 39th and 40th may start next week. NE 39th Avenue, Sandy to Hancock: This area should begin to look much more normal as this phase of work is completed. By Monday June 19, 39th should be open to normal traffic from Broadway to Hancock as the shafts near Pagoda are filled and the installation of the main sewer is complete from Sandy to Hancock. However, crews will probably return to 39th within three weeks to do lateral connections and final paving between Broadway and Tillamook. NE 40th Avenue, Sandy to Hancock: This area will see a lot of activity starting Friday June 16 as crews install the main sewer from the new large manhole at Sandy up to Hancock. Expect very difficult traffic access during work hours for about three days during the sewer construction in this block. At night the street will re-open to local traffic but parking will be limited due to storage of construction equipment. During work hours, it will not be possible to turn north from Sandy to 40th. Vehicles will have to go north via NE 42nd Avenue. NE 41st Avenue: Work is scheduled to start in Sandy at 41st to install the fourth of five large manholes along Sandy. During this work, 41st will dead-end at Sandy with local access from the north (Hancock). |
Work Scheduled June 12 to June 19, 2006Work this week will continue to be concentrated around the Sandy/39th/Broadway and Sandy/40th/Broadway intersections. For now, things are looking much more normal on Sandy east of 42nd. On NE 39th, crews will work to finish the large manhole at Sandy, and to complete work at the pit by The Pagoda Restaurant. Work to lay the sewer up 39th from Broadway to Sandy will start Monday and is scheduled to take 3 to 4 days to get to Hancock Street. Things on 39th may look much more normal by June 19. At NE 40th & Sandy, work will continue to build the large manhole. Then, crews will dig across Sandy from north to south, ending up in Broadway near A-Boy Plumbing. Later, work will follow to build the sewer north up 40th from Sandy to Hancock. Traffic highlights: During work in Sandy/40th and in Broadway near A-Boy, the bypass to northbound 42nd Avenue will be closed during work hours. Northbound traffic will have to use 40th, or head north on the streets east of 42nd. During work to build the main sewer on 40th from Sandy to Hancock, 40th will be closed to northbound traffic during work hours and motorists will have to use 42nd. Traffic on Sandy will continue to see rush-hour delays due to the bottleneck between 41st and 38th. Tri-Met stops: Westbound stops for Bus #12 will be closed at 42nd and 39th due to construction activity. Westbound stops at 42nd and 37th are open. The westbound stop for Bus #77 on the southeast corner of 39th & Sandy remains closed. Board at 37th & Broadway or at Hollywood Transit Center. back to top |
Work Scheduled June 2 to June 11, 2006Junior Rose Parade - Wednesday, June 7: There will be no sewer work anywhere in the Hollywood project area. Work areas on Sandy and NE 40th will be cleaned up the day before. The parade will follow its normal route on Sandy - 40th - Tillamook. Work will resume Thursday. NE 39th Avenue - Crews have finished boring from the Pagoda Restaurant to the new manhole in Sandy at 39th. Next they will push the black plastic sewer pipe inside the steel liner that was bored into place. Then, next week they will install the main sewer line up 39th from the Pagoda to Hancock, and then from Tillamook to Thompson. Then, they will begin installing sewer lateral connections (individual buildings to the main pipe) in 39th between Broadway and Thompson. Saturday work: Parsons plans to work on 39th and possibly in other locations on Saturday, June 3. NE 40th & Sandy - On Monday-Tuesday June 5-6 crews will excavate for a 8-foot-diameter manhole in the north lane of Sandy. Then, they will pour a concrete base for the manhole and fence off the excavation. They will return the week of June 12 to install the manhole and then dig across Sandy from the new manhole to NE Broadway Street near A-Boy Plumbing. A Note About Trees: Four trees had to be removed from the north side of Sandy between 40th and 42nd. This was necessary either to reconstruct lateral sewer pipes or to excavate and fill voids beneath the trees. It is unusual that trees must be removed for sewer reconstruction but the need to fill voids along the Sandy Boulevard sewer made it necessary in these cases. Environmental Services will work with the City's Urban Forestry Department to replace the trees when work is complete. Replacement will be at sewer project expense and will be done during fall and winter months when planting conditions are favorable. A tree-trimming subcontractor (arborist) is working with Parsons Construction to trim trees in advance of construction. This trimming is done in coordination with the city forester at project expense. back to top |
Work Scheduled Tuesday May 30 through Wednesday, June 7Junior Rose Parade Wednesday, June 7 - The parade will take place as scheduled and along its normal route. No sewer construction will be done anywhere in the project area on parade day. The parade route on Sandy will have a minimum of three lanes available in the work areas between 47th and 40th. There will probably be a fenced excavation at the intersection of 40th and Sandy where the parade turns north onto 40th, but there will be adequate room for marchers, floats and vehicles to make the turn. There will be no other work underway on 40th before the parade. There will be no work on the Tillamook section of the parade route, but the parade route will cross the temporary pavement that crosses Tillamook at 39th. The day before the parade the project area will be cleaned up and work areas along Sandy, 40th and Tillamook will be cleaned with a street sweeper. Other work scheduled:
