Historic Columbia River Highway Closure

The Historic Columbia River Highway, also known as U.S. 30, will close to vehicles, bicyclists and pedestrians for landslide repairs just east of Larch Mountain Road, between Portland Women’s Forum and Vista House, starting Monday, July 7.

Repairs to an area of ancient landslide will require full closure of the historic highway at Larch Mountain Road. We estimate that the work will be completed and that this section of the historic highway will reopen by the end of September.
