The Cornelius Pass Road Jurisdictional Transfer is Complete

NW Cornelius Pass Road between U.S. 30 and U.S. 26 is a state highway as of Monday, March 1 after a jurisdictional transfer from Multnomah County and Washington County.

A map of the new OR 127, NW Cornelius Pass Road between U.S. 30 and U.S 26.

The Oregon State Legislature directed ODOT to take over this section of NW Cornelius Pass Road from Multnomah and Washington Counties as part of House Bill 2017 (Keep Oregon Moving). ODOT worked closely with each County to finalize Jurisdictional Transfer Agreements in 2020, and the Oregon Transportation Commission voted to approve the transfer in early 2021.

In addition to its current name, Cornelius Pass Road gets two new names as part of the jurisdictional transfer: Cornelius Pass Highway and OR 127. You can expect to see new OR 127 signs popping up on Cornelius Pass Road later this year.

The future of Cornelius Pass Road

There will be very few noticeable changes for people who live or travel on Cornelius Pass Road every day. As a state highway, the road will be subject to ODOT standards for design and maintenance and any improvements to the road will be planned and funded at the statewide level. 

There are no construction projects on OR 127 in the 2021-2024 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program, but we have some upcoming improvements planned. This summer, ODOT will repave the section of Cornelius Pass Road from NW Skyline Boulevard to U.S. 30. We are also currently collaborating with Washington County on the design of a project that will make Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) improvements along the entire Cornelius Pass Road corridor from U.S. 30 to OR 8. These safety improvements will include curve warning signage and signal upgrades. We will share more information about this project later in design.
