BEND, OR -- Crews installing a new pedestrian island on Greenwood at 6th Street hit a waterline Tuesday afternoon, causing big backups in the area. Traffic was reduced to one lane in each direction for a while, then directed through with a flagger while it was repaired.
The Oregon Department of Transportation has been working at the intersection; the new pedestrian island is part of a larger project to improve safety along Highway 20.
