Project-Details

I-84: (Multi-Use Path) Jordan Road Tunnel - Sandy River Delta

Design Phase

Region 1: Portland metro and Hood River County (Troutdale)

We're building a new multi-use path parallel to Jordan Road from the pedestrian tunnel under I-84 to the Sandy River Delta, increasing safer connections for people who walk, bike or roll.

Impacts

Traffic Impact

During construction, travelers, including pedestrians and bicyclists can expect:

No lane closures are planned on I-84.
The I-84 westbound exit ramp may experience some delays due to flagger control on Jordan Road.
Periodic single lane closures on Jordan Road, with flaggers directing traffic as needed.
The pedestrian and bicycle tunnel under I-84 will remain open during Phase 1 (main path construction) but will temporarily close only during Phase 2 (path connection to tunnel).
Pedestrians and bicyclists can expect a temporary detour route using an existing trail close to the construction site; watch for signage..
Existing, designated trails will remain open other than the area under construction.
The parking lot for the Sandy River Delta recreational area will remain open.

Construction Impacts

Construction will occur parallel to Jordan Road between the I-84 pedestrian tunnel and the Sandy River Delta. Periodic lane closures under flagger control are expected on Jordan Road.

See the "Traffiic Impact" section for more information about traffic impacts during construction.

Schedule

Construction is expected to begin in early 2026 and continue through late summer 2026. The project schedule is subject to change.

Details

About

This project will construct a new multi-use path parallel to Jordan Road between the I-84 pedestrian tunnel and the Sandy River Delta. The path connects to the existing pedestrian and bicycle tunnel underneath I-84 and will provide a paved, designated path for visitors walking, biking or rolling into the Sandy River Delta.

Pictured above: view of the existing conditions where we will build a new multi-use path parallel to Jordan Road near I-84 at Exit 18.

Location

I-84 |

I-84 at Exit 18 in Troutdale (Sandy River Delta) - from Jordan Road to the Sandy River Delta.

Cost and Funding

$3.4 million

Contractor

We will provide the name of the contractor once they have been selected.

Benefits

The new paved multi-use path will create a safer connection to the existing 40-mile trail system, replacing the unimproved gravel path.

Additional Information

Over the next several years, we have many construction projects planned on I-84 between I-205 and Hood River, and on the Historic Columbia River Highway between Troutdale and Hood River.
