If you use Congress Ave. and go past Forest Grove School and/or the dog park (Rip Van Winkle), you must have noticed construction which began on June 20 in the circular “driveway” at the school.
It’s a summer-long project to improve bus drop-off and passenger car drop-off, plus adding an ADA ramp and a few more parking spaces. It may cause some congestion as it merges three access areas from the high school to Forest Grove, but the anticipated end date of 9/9/16 should be the end of problems. School starts August 10, by the way. Learn to drive slowly/carefully through there for the sake of the construction, but keep doing it for the sake of the kids.
