1st Street/Biggs-Rufus Highway Bridge (west of Sullivan Ln)
As the Mayor of Rufus there are a few points of concern along U.S. 30 through the city. One point of major concern and safety is the bridge at the east end of town. Obviously when originally constructed it worked well for the traffic and the size and weight of the vehicles in the 40's. Times have change with vehicles, trucks and traffic. The bridge is undersized in relation to the road traffic, in dire need of major repair versus patching. Heavy loads are a common sight through our city

1st Street Sidewalks (Rufus)
Human safety should be an important element for ODOT. When ODOT diverted traffic through town due to the closure of I-84 2 years ago, there was a major concern for safety. Rufus has a highway going through town. It is the feelings of the citizens that ODOT has no regard for human safety by ignoring the fact there is a need for sidewalks, safe parking, and erosion control for their bridges which are severely under maintained and falling apart. Once again we need to address these problems with long term fixes instead of bandage repairs. As the Mayor of Rufus it has been a major topic for our citizens and nothing has been done.

Pedestrian Crossings of Biggs-Rufus Highway
U.S.30 through town is a major concern. Parking is dangerous and has no safe parameters. Backing onto U.S.30 from a parking space has created fender benders and WILL cause a major life threating accident. Our time to have ODOT address these issues with safety is long needed. We are a major area for recreation and traffic control is non-existent.
