Neighborhood Transportation Safety Program - It's Not Over Yet
Do you have a transportation project in mind? There is still time to submit your suggestions!
Since May 2018, we have been working on projects to enhance traffic flow, improve neighborhood safety, and increase safe access to schools and parks through the Tualatin Moving Forward bond program. Much of the program’s success has stemmed from community-identified projects throughout Tualatin.
Projects suggested by community members being constructed this year include:
- 67th/68th Avenue Loop at Stoneridge Park
- Avery Street at Tualatin-Sherwood Road
- Boones Ferry Road at the Commons – Phase 2
- Martinazzi Avenue at Fred Meyer Driveway
- Martinazzi Avenue at Mohawk Street
- Sagert Street Bridge/I-5 Walkway
"Most of these smaller projects cost $150,000 or less – but they make a big difference in neighborhood traffic safety," emphasizes Tualatin City Engineer Mike McCarthy, P.E.
While the Tualatin Moving Forward bond program will come to a close at the end of 2023, the City values community feedback and will continue to accept project suggestions through a brand-new Neighborhood Transportation Safety Program. This program is geared toward small and medium-sized projects, such as the installation of pedestrian-activated rapid flashing beacons, minor traffic and striping changes, filling in missing sidewalk segments, adding new and improved bike lanes, new or enhanced crosswalks, and retrofitting curb ramps to meet ADA requirements.
Suggestions from community members will be accepted through the end of 2023 by going to the program website: TualatinMovingForward.com. Starting in 2024, the “Suggest a Project” button will move to the City’s website. Funding for these projects will come from the City’s Gas Tax fund. While the program will be smaller (with less funding), we will still be able to deliver some of these community-suggested small projects that make a big difference.
Future neighborhood transportation projects will be selected through the same review process used since 2018, based on four guiding principles:
- Equity
- Safety
- Feasibility
- Impact
The projects identified by community members will also be valuable input for the forthcoming update of the City’s Transportation System Plan (TSP). The TSP will guide transportation planning, policy, and investments in Tualatin over the next few decades.
