Oregon 62 is a highway of national significance, as well as Shady Cove’s ‘Main Street’. The project will try to find the right balance of providing for local businesses and highway users, while improving safety for travelers, bicyclists and pedestrians
Estimated total project cost
$2.7 million
Construction Schedule
2015
Project Scope
In partnership with the City of Shady Cove, the project will widen Highway 62 in the urban section of Shady Cove between Rogue River Drive and Cleveland Street. The project will be designed to construct a two-way, center turn lane and provide sidewalks, bike lanes and storm sewer.
Sidewalks will be constructed on both sides of the highway between Rogue River Drive and Williams Lane. Sidewalks will be built on only the west side between Williams Lane and Cleveland Street. 
Jackson County is also funding a right turn lane for Rogue River Drive, which will be included in this project.
In April through early summer 2012, ODOT Survey crews will be on site to establish right of way. This survey will help determine the project preliminary design and any associated impacts. Afterward, ODOT will be coordinating and meeting with property owners to address individual project design issues, including any change in driveway.
In addition, ODOT and Shady Cove staff will update the community as the design progresses. So far, ODOT staff has met twice with the local chamber of commerce, in August 2011 and April 2012. At that time, ODOT staff explained after survey is complete and preliminary design is placed, we will then be back to share the preliminary design and any affects on the community and property owners.
