Expect delays up to 20 minutes during the daytime from 7 a.m. until 3:30 p.m.
Dead trees close to roads can be hazardous and need to be removed so they don’t fall onto the highway.
ODOT removes them when they present an immediate or near-future risk to the road or utilities.
Hazard trees are identified and evaluated by ODOT foresters prior to removal.
