Project Description

This project covers the area from Main Street’s intersection with Scoffins Street to the railroad crossing, with additional work at the intersection of Main and Tigard streets. It's a continuation of the Main Street Phase 1 project, which covered the area from Main Street’s southwestern intersection with Pacific Highway to the railroad crossing. This project is the continuation and completion of the Main Street Green Street.

The project will address current safety and traffic issues on Main Street, including the depressed grade north/eastbound at the intersection with Tigard Street, and will analyze possible improvements to traffic patterns and flow at the intersection with Commercial Street and Scoffins Street.
