Public-private partnership agreement for Hwy 26/Cedar Hills Boulevard improvements goes to the Board April 4
Click to enlarge
A public-private partnership agreement for installation of safety improvements at the Hwy 26 and Cedar Hills Boulevard interchange is out for final approval and will go before the Washington County Board of Commissioners on April 4.
ODOT, the city of Beaverton and J. Peterkort & Co. are each contributing $200,000 to the project. Washington County is contributing $600,000. The project will make the following safety improvements:
  • A traffic signal at the end of the eastbound off-ramp which will be synchronized with the existing signal at Butner.
  • ADA and sidewalk improvements associated with the new signal.
  • A sidewalk along the east side of Cedar Hills under the overpass and across the westbound on-ramp.
The agreement calls for LUT to manage the project, which will improve safety for motorists making left turns from the U.S. 26/Cedar Hills ramp onto Cedar Hills Boulevard. It will also provide safe north/south connectivity for pedestrians.
If approved, construction is expected to begin in 2018.
