There’s no estimated date for when West Burnside will reopen, after an eastbound stretch of the road was closed Friday due to a landslide. Portland Bureau of Transportation said on Monday that the threat of landslides still remains, and the eastbound lane of West Burnside will stay closed between Southwest Barnes Road and Skyline Boulevard for “at least several more days" while crews monitor the area.

The transportation bureau first responded to the area on Friday morning to reports of a landslide, and spent the day hauling dump truck loads of debris and building a wall to make the area safer. On Monday, engineers determined that the slide was still active, there was still a risk of landslide and that more debris had continued to fall over the weekend.

The transportation bureau has set up a detour for eastbound travelers along Southwest Barnes Road and Skyline Boulevard.

The National Weather Service said so far this month, Portland has seen 6.15 inches of rain, which is more than normal. Weather service data shows the normal rainfall accumulation for this point in January is 4.32 inches. Last year at this time, Portland had seen 2.79 inches of rain.
