Safety improvements are needed on Martin Road due to an increase in freight and commercial traffic. The road provides a connection between U.S. 26 and the city of Forest Grove.
We have installed a roundabout at Highway 47 and Martin Road. We are widening the road shoulders on Martin Road to the roundabout. We will also replace three culverts on Martin Road at Council Creek with a single-span concrete bridge.
Construction start: July 2023
