Airport Road in Albany is not on one of my regular bicycle routes. I went there Saturday to have a look at a tent.
The news in Oregon has been full of reports on the fatal dangers of the illegal use of fentanyl, but I had never seen a picture of what a fentanyl pill looks like.
For more than a decade now, travelers on I-5 have enjoyed the convenience of a large and well kept rest stop at Exit 99 in Canyonville. For that we can thank the Cow Creek Band of Umpqua Tribe of Indians.
A reader noticed construction activity right next to the southbound Albany freeway off-ramp that feeds into Airport Road.
Now and then, people in Albany wonder what’s going on with the former restaurant at 3225 Santiam Hwy. S.E., especially now that access to the parking lot is barred by a chain link fence.
Driving back to central Albany from east of I-5 might be more complicated in decades to come if one proposal for road system changes is carried out.
Why omit Albany from this freeway sign?
When you drive north on Interstate 5 and come to Exit 228, you’re already in Albany. For years now, I have wondered why the Oregon Department of Transportation does not say so on its sign.
