Good morning, this is your Bend Local Frequency for Monday, November 24, 2025.We’re kicking off this back-to-work Monday with some important updates for Bend commuters. Expect some lane closures downtown, especially along NW Bond Street near the Deschutes County Courthouse—flaggers will be out from nine to three thirty, so pack a little extra patience for your drive. Over on Magnolia Lane, full closures continue for those big infrastructure improvements, but local access remains. Butler Market Road is in the spotlight too, as crews move forward with the corridor redesign and work toward a new single-lane roundabout—a headache for today, but a win for future cyclists and pedestrians. Olney Avenue’s still closed as it gets safety upgrades, so heed detours and check TripCheck for real-time impacts before heading out. These improvements stretch across Central Oregon, and though most work is weather-dependent, officials urge travelers to stay vigilant as schedules shift with the early winter storms.Turning to local news, Bend police are investigating a road rage shooting that happened yesterday near SE Third Street and SE Wilson Avenue. A single round was fired into a vehicle after an altercation; thankfully, the 19-year-old victim wasn’t injured. The suspect—described as a heavyset white male in his late twenties with blonde hair and a beard—left in a white compact SUV. If you have any info or dashcam footage, Bend PD would appreciate your help.If you’re looking for ways to shake Monday off, you’ve got plenty of options.
