ONTARIO – (Release from ODOT) The Oregon Department of Transportation will be repairing the U.S. 30 Snake River (Ontario) Bridge that connects Oregon and Idaho, between Ontario and Fruitland. The bridge is located less than a mile north of Interstate 84 Exit 376. To collect feedback about the upcoming project we are holding an ONLINE OPEN HOUSE from March 29 through April 9. Local residents, businesses, bridge users and other interested parties are encouraged to visit the website and review project plans, pictures and traffic impacts information, and then provide feedback. The online open house will be available for viewing March 29 at the following web address: https://odotopenhouse.org/u-s-30-snake-river-ontario-bridge.

The Snake River Bridge provides important access between Oregon and Idaho. Built in 1967, the structure is in need of repairs and upgrades. Without them, the bridge will continue to deteriorate.

We will design the project this year and construct it in 2022. Your comments will help us build a better, safer project.
