Work is scheduled to begin in late fall of this year on a two-year project to improve Highway 99E (McLoughlin Boulevard) from the Kellogg Creek Bridge in Milwaukie to Roethe Road north of Gladstone. The project will include repaving the road surface of Highway 99E, adding a new traffic signal and intersection improvements at Highway 99E and River Road, and updates to drainage systems in this section. From the River Road intersection south to Roethe, ODOT will construct new sidewalks at various locations to enhance pedestrian mobility and safety. In addition, the signals for this section will be “interconnected” to improve traffic flow along McLoughlin Boulevard, leading into the recently completed highway section in Milwaukie. Bicycle improvements include widening between River Road and Park Avenue and
restriping the section of roadway to include marked bicycle lanes. For more
information please contact ODOT Community Affairs Coordinator Judy Shioshi, by
phone at (503) 731-8237 or by email at Judy.A.Shioshi@odot.state.or.us
