Construction Impacts
Construction started in fall 2022 and will continue through summer 2023
Schedule subject to change.
During construction, expect temporary lane and shoulder closures on SW Hall Boulevard and some side streets, and signed and accessible detours for sidewalk users.
To reduce traffic impacts during the day, we may complete some work at night.
Project Updates
Sidewalk curb ramps at nine existing intersections are complete and functional. Ongoing cleanup, landscaping and other construction improvements, including ADA sidewalk curb ramp upgrades at the existing signalized intersections will last through summer 2023.
Construction at the remaining signalized intersections began early January and will continue through summer 2023. The project schedule is subject to change.
Nighttime Noise Hotline
We will minimize nighttime noise when possible. During consruction, those working or living near the work areas may hear periodic construction noise from construction trucks and other equipment such as paving and grinding machines, jackhammers, concrete saws and compressors.
Noise Hotline: (503) 412-2349. This number is available for nearby residents and businesses to help resolve any ODOT noise-related concerns 24 hours a day.
Other projects in the area
OR 141: SW Hall Boulevard from SW 92nd Avenue to SW Pfaffle Street
ODOT, in coordination with the City of Tigard, is lowering the speed limit from 40 mph to 30 mph on OR 141 (SW Hall Boulevard) between SW 92nd Avenue and SW Pfaffle Street. The new reduced speed limit will go into effect the week of March 20, once crews install new posted speed limit signs.
Lower vehicle speeds can decrease the severity of crashes, particularly in pedestrian and bike collisions and may also allow drivers more time to see and react to vulnerable road users and obstacles. In the Portland metro region, excessive speed and driver impairment combine to be the second leading cause of fatal and disabling crashes.
Speed Zones in Oregon are established through an engineering study completed by ODOT and follows a full review of roadway characteristics including crash history, traffic volumes, highway geometry, roadside culture and density.
- During installation of new speed limit signs, expect short term shoulder closures on SW Hall Boulevard between SW 92nd Avenue and SW Pfaffle Street during the day between 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. while sign crews install the new signs.
OR 141: SW Hall Boulevard: Pedestrian Safety Improvements including Two Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons
In partnership with the City of Tigard and Washington County, ODOT is working on a project to enhance safety on SW Hall Boulevard by installing two new enhanced pedestrian crossings, or Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons, across SW Hall Boulevard at the intersections of SW Hemlock Street in unincorporated Washington County and SW Spruce Street within the City of Tigard. Additional work includes constructing new sidewalk, new lighting and improving sidewalk curb ramps to meet ADA requirements. The project begins the design phase in 2023, with construction anticipated in 2025. For more information please visit the project
website.
Oregon 217 Auxiliary Lanes Project
ODOT is working on a project to improve safety and reduce bottlenecks on OR 217 by adding auxiliary lanes, or ramp to ramp connections, between Beaverton-Hillsdale Highway and OR 99W. Work began in December 2021 and continues through 2025. In partnership with the City of Beaverton and Washington County, we are making targeted improvements to local bicycle and pedestrian routes. New bike lanes and sidewalks will be installed on Hall Blvd between Scholls Ferry Road and SW Cascade Avenue. The Hall Blvd bridge over OR217 between OR99W and SW Pfaffle Street will be replaced. For more information please visit the project website:

Willamette Water Supply
The Willamette Water Supply Program is adding seismically-resilient water supply for Tualatin Valley Water District, City of Hillsboro, and City of Beaverton water customers. This project will occur along the Hall Blvd corridor beginning March 2023. For more information please visit the project website:

Tips for Traveling Safely in Work Zones- Orange is your cue! Pay attention when you see orange signs, barrels, cones and barricades.
- Obey all speed signs for your safety and the safety of others.
- Expect delays—plan for them—and leave early so you can drive safely through the work zone.
- Allow extra time when traveling and follow all signs and flaggers for safety.
