Construction on Wheeling in Oregon

Anyone know what's going on, on Wheeling between the 280 exit (Navarre/Route 2) and Woodville Road? Looks like they bought out several houses along the road and perhaps widening it to 3-4 lanes? Further down the road they are tearing up land for what looks like more lanes, curious how is will affect the fruit stand there.

Haven't found any details and curious.

I believe they are widening the bridge over the Expressway and also that stretch of Wheeling. This has been talked about for years. I have also heard that at least one of the home owners did not want to sell, but what the Government wants they get.

Also they have put in a stone road leading to the greenhouse & fresh produce business.(brain cramp on the name of the place)

It will be long overdue project, improved access to I280 and hopefully shorter waits at the red lights

Thanks nana!

SherryET: thanks, I was wondering what was going to happen to that fruit/vegetable stand since it's so close to the road. Was glad to see they at least left a part of the road open in front of it so people could still get to it.
