Reedsport, OR - July 10, 2019 – A series of speed bumps and new road signs will be installed along a quarter mile stretch of the South Jetty Road, near Florence, OR, within the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area to promote safety and traffic flow. Installation is tentatively scheduled for July 15, 2019 and will move forward as weather allows. During installation visitors will be able to access South Jetty Road but should expect flaggers and short delays.
To ensure safety of all users the speed bumps are designed to reduce traffic speed near the Goose Pasture OHV Staging Area to approximately 10 mph. Reducing vehicle speed in this area will also allow motorists extra time to complete turns in and out of the Goose Pasture and “Dog Pond” recreation sites.
