The Dennis L. Edwards Tunnel is located on the Sunset Highway 12 miles east of here.
The tunnel was named by the Oregon Transportation Commission on August 21, 2002, in memory of Dennis L. Edwards, who on January 28, 1999, lost his life in the performance of his duties inside the tunnel when a section of the tunnel collapsed.
The naming of the tunnel honors him and all ODOT maintenance employees who risk their lives in the performance of their duties every day to maintain and operate the state highway system.
