The City of Waldport has secured a Transportation Enhancement grant to beautify and upgrade the downtown streetscape. The project is located on Hwy. 101 from the south end of the Alsea Bay Bridge to the William Keady Wayside.
Through this section of Hwy. 101, the pavement is worn and is in need of preservation. The signal located at the intersection of Hwy. 101/34 needs to be upgraded and/or replaced.
The project completion is anticipated to be during the early summer of 2008.
