BAKER COUNTY – (Release from ODOT)
Expect up to 20-minute delays along OR Highway 86 (Baker-Copperfield Hwy) tonight and tomorrow night (Sept. 28 and 29) to accommodate an oversized load being transported from Baker City to the Idaho border. The shipment will travel down the center of the road at times due to its extreme weight and size. Traffic will be stopped with flaggers and pilot cars until it is safe to pass. The shipment will travel to the Idaho border the first night, then return towards I-84 on the second night. Please plan extra travel time along this route and be patient while this equipment is transported to one of the Snake River dams in Idaho. The shipment does not contain any hazardous materials.
