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 plan to install a roundabout at Highway 47 and Martin Road. Widened shoulders on Martin Road will extend south to the roundabout. We will replace two culverts on Martin Road at Council Creek at the same time.
Construction start: July 2023
