    I'm taking my first west coast load to Eugene oregon and I was looking at route 20 across oregon, any info about that road? I'm pulling a hazmat load but I don't see any restrictions on that stretch.

    20 is good running, you're gonna hit a few small towns though. Check on ODOT's website to make sure it's not restricted for hazmat. I run 20 through there quite a bit but haven't noticed any, but better to be on the safe side. Where are you coming from?

    Howdy logan,
    You'll want take the 126 split off 20 on the west side of the cascades to eugene. There are no restrictions for hz. Dont get in a hurry once you get on the west side of the mts. Its a beauty drive. Lots of corners.:) OSP strictly enforces 55 ok maybe 60. Welcome to Orygun.
     
    Logan76 Thanks this.

    I LOVE 20 through Oregon. Slow going 55/60 but a really beautiful drive.
