PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — There’s an unfortunate update on that notorious bump along Highway 26 near Seaside that’s previously sent cars airborne and caused several crashes.
According to the officials, the bump is back.
A slide near milepost 13 is to blame after underground water pressure pushed the pavement up again, the Oregon Department of Transportation said.

Crews repaired the bump back in August but new cracks have since formed.
The speed limit is down to 25 miles per hour.
If the weather cooperates and stays dry, crews plan to add another drain to relieve the water pressure.
For now, ODOT says they’re keeping a close eye on it.
