Scholls Ferry Road (Roy Rogers to Teal)
The existing section of SW Scholls Ferry Road between Roy Rogers Road and Teal Boulevard is a two-lane roadway providing access between SW Murray Boulevard and the growing residential areas in southwest Beaverton. Currently turning onto or from SW Scholls Ferry Road can be challenging due to heavy traffic volumes. This section of roadway also lacks bicycle facilities and has intermittent sections of sidewalk.
The proposed project will widen SW Scholls Ferry Road to five lanes, which will consist of two travel lanes in each direction with a continuous center turn lane. This will reduce traffic congestion from the intersection of Teal Boulevard west through Roy Rogers Road. Additional improvements include sidewalks, bicycle lanes, street lighting and improved sight distance at the intersections.

The Noise Impact Analysis is complete. Click on the "Design" link to the right to view the final report.
Surveyors will be intermittently on site gathering field and topographical information such as fence locations, trees, property corner monuments, wells, walls, storm and sanitary manholes, as well as mapping beyond the existing right-of-way when necessary. The information gathered will be used to prepare a project base map that reflects the current topography, right-of-way, soil types, wetland limits, existing utility locations, and other physical features.
Please note: Development work for a 40-lot subdivision at the NW corner of Loon and Scholls Ferry is currently in progress and their contractor will be performing some work on Scholls Ferry Road, requiring occasional lane restrictions. This development is permitted through the City of Beaverton Public Works and is unrelated to our capital road project.
