Portland Reopens Southwest Tichner Drive After Landslide Cleanup
(Portland, OR) -- Southwest Tichner Drive has reopened nearly five months after a landslide forced its closure near the West Burnside intersection. The March slide sent hundreds of cubic yards of rock crashing down, with some boulders spilling onto the roadway. Crews hauled away more than 3,400 tons of debris in 32 truckloads and found damage to part of the catchment wall at the site. PBOT says a contractor will rebuild the wall, and the area will be closely monitored through the winter.
