Road Conditions Update Updated 10/05/09 Hwy 242 / Old McKenzie Pass - CLOSED due to seasonal snow. Opened less than three months this year due to construction. The project is done, so maybe we'll have a bigger window next year to ride this magnificent route. Nestucca River Road - Bill Churchill, from Cloverdale, reports that the disappointing western end of Nestucca River Road, from about Bible Creek Road to Blaine, is now fixed. The sunken grades and potholes are gone. That is really good news that makes one of OregonMotorcyclist's favorite routes even better! Now if they would just pave that 2 1/2 mile section of gravel on the top of the hill..... Highway 38 - The beautiful Hwy 38 just keeps getting better! Brand new pavement between Scottsburg and Reedsport completes the two-year repaving project. It's smooth sailing all the way from Drain to Reedsport. Territorial Highway - The broken and sunken pavement in the little twisty section between Gillespie Corners and King Estate Winery is newly paved. Real smooth! NFR 32 - Slide at top of hill will not be repaired, according to Siuslaw National Forest spokeswoman. However, the dirt bypass is being upgraded. To contribute a road condition update, click here.
