HB 2017: Local Governments

Road and Bridge Condition Reporting

It's as easy as 1, 2, 3!

In order to make reporting easy, we've boiled it down to three steps.

1. Identify and survey your roads.
   
• Visit the road condition resource page to find out which roads to report on and how to determine road condition. Survey your eligible roads during this summer when pavements are dry and clear. We have a video tutorial to help you.
2. Review your bridge condition data.
• ODOT inspects all city, county, and state bridges on the National Bridge Inventory every two years. Visit the Oregon's Local Government Bridge Conditions page to see the results of the most recent inspections. We encourage you to use this data for completing your bridge condition report by February 1, 2023. View a short video tutorial on bridge condition reporting.
  
3. Submit your report.
• In December 2022, local government staff will receive an email with a temporary password to access the online reporting form. Contact our Transparency Team if you need login credentials. If you are a returning user, you may access the Local Agency Infrastructure Condition Reporting Form now.
  
• See the following instruction guides for step-by-step information on how to complete the form.

What does HB 2017 require?

HB 2017 (ORS 184.617 to 184.742), was passed by the Oregon legislature in 2017. It required the Oregon Transportation Commission to work with cities and counties to develop uniform standards to describe and report the condition of pavement and bridges owned by ODOT, counties and cities. Each city and county must report to ODOT on the condition of their roads and bridges by Feb. 1 of each odd-numbered year. ODOT has to post these reports online. The final report to the Legislature is also posted online. The next reporting deadline for local governments is February 1, 2023.

Transportation Project Website Reporting

The law requires ODOT to post links to all available county and city transportation project websites. When local jurisdictions report their road and bridge conditions, they also provide links to their project websites.
