 Oregon remains under an extreme heat emergency today with dangerously high temperatures across much of the state. And work to replace the Pelican Bridge over Lakeport Boulevard has begun, which means the stretch of US-97 that includes the bridge will be shut down for the next six weeks. Hill Road near Matney Way is also closed this week for railroad crossing work, and Laverne Avenue from Altamont to Crest is still closed for road and utility work.
