Hwy 20 Corvallis to Newport OR

Hwy 20 Corvallis to Newport OR, how bad is the construction for a 40' MH? I know Eddyville was a mess a couple of years ago.

How about 42 from I5 to Newmark?

How about 126 from I5 to Florence?

  • It's mostly down hill with lots of tight turns, but it's not scarey or challenging
  • How is 20 from Bend to Sweet Home. My Trucker's atlas says it it not truck friendly.
  • take your pick. all three are used by motorhomes and large semi's daily
    as stated above the construction at eddyville is on hold
  • 20 is NOT under construction at this time. The new part is currently on-hold until some corrections are made and that looks like it is going to take many more months to work out and in the mean time, the road is the same as it's always been with some pretty good curves between Eddyville and Toledo, but nothing that should give you problems. We take this road at least bi-weekly and take the motor home over it twice a year. It's not a problem. Just obey the posted speed signs for the curves and you'll be just fine. If you're coming to Newport, I highly recommend Pacific Shores Motorcoach Resort.
