170th Avenue and Farmington Road Intersection Safety Improvements

170th Avenue and Farmington Road IntersectionProject Description

Two pedestrian islands will be installed on the northeast and southwest corners of the 170th Avenue and Farmington Road intersection.

Other improvements include:

  • Shorter crosswalks
  • ADA-compliant ramps
  • Pedestrian crossings with push buttons
  • Upgraded traffic signal reflectors and software upgrades

The 170th Avenue and Farmington Road intersection currently has skewed crosswalks, creating long distances for pedestrians. Traffic signals can be difficult to see in some conditions. This project will increase safety by addressing these issues.

 

Funding Information

This approximately $900,000 project is funded through County's Road Capital Fund and the Oregon Department of Transportation's (ODOT) All Roads Transportation Safety (ARTS) program.
