The City of Eugene has notified agencies that some city streets should be avoided, due to weather-related issues:
28th Avenue is currently closed to traffic from Chambers Street to Almaden Street, as several vehicles are stuck in the snow. There were several crashes blocking traffic. City crews are working on a plow truck. One accident involved a commercial truck that crashed into a car and tree. These have been slow-speed crashes, in which vehicles have slipped or slid into collisions with other vehicles or objects.
Northbound Ferry Street Bridge is closed from its on-ramp at Mill Street and W. 7th Avenue to Coburg Road. A sander is en route. Some vehicles have been unable to go up the ramp, causing traffic to back up onto 7th Avenue.

UO faculty, staff and students are urged to take adequate time to travel home, and commute carefully and safely.
