ROSEBURG, OR – Stewart Park Drive Bridge will be closed to vehicle and pedestrian traffic for inspection work overnight on Friday, March 11.

The jade-green steel truss bridge known as the “Green Bridge” will be closed over the South Umpqua River from 5 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Saturday while a contractor performs inspection work.

The 327-foot bridge, which was built in 1932 to 1933, links Stewart Park to Fir Grove Park and is not to be confused with the nearby Stewart Parkway Bridge.
