Expect delays on Southeast Reed Road starting Nov. 1

Drivers should expect delays on Southeast Reed Road starting Monday as road crews expand the road between Southeast Battle Creek Road and Southeast Fairview Industrial Drive.

“There will be continuous flagging, traffic revisions, and detours resulting in long delays,” the city of Salem said in a news release.

The construction is expected to last until next August.

All truck and local traffic should use Kuebler Boulevard or Madrona Avenue Southeast to avoid the closure. Local access will be provided from Fairview Industrial Drive Southeast to Strong Road Southeast for nearby businesses and residences during construction.

Northbound traffic on Reed Road from Southeast Battle will remain open. Southbound traffic on Reed Road from Fairview Industrial Drive will experience periodic closures and detours, the city said.
