About

This project upgraded curve warning signs to meet national standards and installed new curve warnings at the curves that meet a specific crash threshold.

These signs will help reduce fatal and serious roadway departure crashes at horizontal curves. Curve warning signage has been shown to aid in driver's awareness in the changes to the direction of the road and to decreases roadway departure crashes. Roadway departure fatalities account for about two-thirds of Oregon fatalities.

The following corridors were included in the project:

OR 126 / OR 242 from milepost 10.9 to 75.5.
OR 58 from milepost 42.4 to 61.1.
OR 228 from milepost 7.6 to 20.
