Gales Creek and Thatcher Road Intersection

The Thatcher Road intersection with Gales Creek Road (OR-8) will be realigned for improved sight distance and prepare the intersection for a future traffic signal (not part of this project.)

We will also install: 

• A crosswalk across Gales Creek Road with a Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB)
• A sidewalk on the north side of Thatcher Road between pathway at Snapdragon Lane and Gales Creek Road 
• A sidewalk on the south side of Gales Creek Road between Talisman Lane and the crosswalk
• A paved pad for GroveLink bus stop
