Just a reminder that the bridge heading east out of Corvallis over the Willamette to Hwy 34 is under construction. The temporary bridge is one lane and traffic is backed up on normal days. Be prepared for a long wait. For those heading north, consider taking the bypass instead to get to I-5, although it will also be a wait. Or head north up Hwy 99. Or Hwy 20 to Albany to I-5. Avoid downtown as much as you can.
Even more than previous years, bring your patience.

You are certainly correct, but the old bridge was one lane as well.

True but they are narrowing the lanes down to one sooner as you approach

There is only one travel lane on Van Buren starting at 3rd St. Traffic is very slow even during the week to get over the Willamette so you will need to bring your patience after the game.Additionally there is no left turn onto 2nd St due to construction as well. So the best way to get onto Hwy 20 for Albany is going on Hwy 99 and turning right on Circle Blvd. or Conifer Blvd.

Also tsdtr plays at 4:30 vs Idaho, so that could be a traffic impediment too. Plan accordingly.
