ADA Curb Ramps, Region 1 Portland Metro and Surrounding Areas Phased Ramps

Construction Phase

Region 1: Portland metro and Hood River County (Barlow, Beaverton, Cornelius, Damascus, Estacada, Fairview, Forest Grove, Gladstone, Gresham, Hillsboro, Hood River, Lake Oswego, Milwaukie, Molalla, North Plains, Oregon City, Portland, Sandy, Sherwood, Tigard, Troutdale, Tualatin, West Linn, Wilsonville, Wood Village, Clackamas, Hood River, Multnomah, Washington)

We are improving over 1,600 existing, non-compliant sidewalk curb ramps at intersections and mid-block crossings throughout the Portland Metro and surrounding areas in order to meet current American with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessibility standards. Phases 1-7 are in the design or construction phase. When planning is complete for phases 8 - 10, we will add them to the map. Construction will occur in 10 phases.

Impacts

Construction Impacts

What to expect the week of March 16

In Portland, expect construction activity at the following intersections:

Southeast 54th Avenue and US 26.
Southeast 57th Avenue and US 26.
A mid-block crossing between 57th and 58th on US 26.
Southeast 58th Avenue and US 26.
Southeast 63rd Avenue and US 26.
Southeast 75th Avenue and US 26.
Southeast 77th Avenue and US 26.
Southeast 88th Avenue and US 26.
Southeast 89th Avenue and US 26.

Anticipated impacts: Daytime single lane and shoulder closures. Pedestrian detours.

In Tigard, expect construction activity at the following intersections:

Southwest Dartmouth Street and Southwest 68th Avenue and I-5 at entrance and exit ramps.

Anticipated impacts: Daytime lane and shoulder closures. Pedestrian detours.

In Beaverton, expect construction activity at the following intersections:

Northwest Bronson Road and Northwest Bethany Boulevard.
Northwest Mill Creek Drive and Northwest Murray Boulevard.
Southwest Maple Avenue and OR 10/Southwest Beaverton Hillsdale Highway.
Southwest 98th Avenue and OR 10/Southwest Beaverton Hillsdale Highway.
Southwest 99th Avenueand OR 10/Southwest Beaverton Hillsdale Highway.
Southwest 103rd Avenue and OR 10/Southwest Beaverton Hillsdale Highway.
Southwest 109th Avenue and OR 10/Southwest Beaverton Hillsdale Highway.
Southwest 110th Avenue and OR 10/Southwest Beaverton Hillsdale Highway.
Southwest 185th Avenue and US 26 at exit and entrance ramps.

Anticipated impacts: Daytime lane and shoulder closures. Pedestrian detours. For Trimet Bus Line 9, the westbound stop at Southeast Powell Boulevard and 58th Avenue (Stop ID 4674) will be closed.

Construction schedules and traffic impacts may change due to weather or other unexpected conditions in the field. Updates will be posted here as new information becomes available.

You may occasionally see a lane closed even when no crews are visible. This often means new concrete is curing which is a critical step for the concrete to reach full strength. We appreciate your patience and will reopen lanes as soon as we are able.

During construction, there will be temporary lane, shoulder and sidewalk closures near intersections on state highways in the Portland Metropolitan Area and surrounding areas. All roads will remain open. We will provide accessible paths around the work zones for people walking, biking and rolling. Generally, it takes 1-2 weeks to complete work on an individual corner, with construction on several corners happening concurrently. However, only one corner per intersection will be under construction at a time to maintain access to nearby businesses and services. We will post traffic impacts here on a weekly basis.

Most of the work will take place during the day, however some nightwork is necessary for this project. Those working or living near work zones may hear the noise from heavy equipment, construction trucks, beeping noise when vehicles are in reverse and equipment such as concrete saws, drills and jackhammers. For any noise-related concerns associated with nighttime work, contact the 24/7 noise hotline at: 503-294-1301.

Schedule

Construction began in summer 2025 and will continue through 2029.

About

This phased project to improve sidewalk curb ramps will occur across the Portland Metro and surrounding areas. The work will take place in approximately ten phases that will overlap in terms of timing and geography. The list below shows the general schedule and locations of the first seven phases. We're planning to construct approximately 200 to 400 ramps in each phase.

The Portland Metro Phased Ramps project is one of a series of projects in Region 1, and within the larger ODOT ADA PROGRAM to replace and upgrade curb ramps across the state. This work will bring more than 25,000 curb ramps throughout Oregon into compliance with Americans with Disabilities (ADA) standards. We are committed to new standards for accessible routes through work zones, outreach and addressing public concerns.

Location
