Maintenance to close Stewart Park Drive’s “Green Bridge” Thursday

ROSEBURG, OR – Stewart Park Drive Bridge will be closed to vehicle and pedestrian traffic for tree-trimming maintenance Thursday, June 24.

The jade-green steel truss bridge known as the “Green Bridge” will be closed over the South Umpqua River from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday while a contractor hired by the City of Roseburg trims trees overhanging the bridge that can block road signs or create visibility issues for drivers.

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 Stewart Parkway Bridge, which is just to the west and can be used as a detour route.

The City appreciates motorists’ understanding and patience.
