The food court at Tigard's Costco has shut down for a renovation expected to last six to eight weeks.

The store at 7850 SW Dartmouth St. remains open for regular shopping. Only the food court is affected.

The Oregonian first reported the closure on Thursday, Sept. 17.

No details about the renovation's scope have appeared in public statements. The exact start date of the closure and a firm reopening date are also unclear.

Based on the six-to-eight-week estimate reported by The Oregonian, the food court could reopen sometime in late October or November.

That timeline depends on when the work began, which has not been disclosed.
