I-84 & U.S. 30 (Historic Columbia River Highway)
Upcoming projects between I-205 and Hood River
The Columbia River Gorge is one of Oregon’s seven wonders – home to the first highway in the Pacific Northwest, sweeping vistas and rich history. And for more than 100 years, it’s been an important corridor for freight movements, both in the water and on the road.
Over the next several years, we have many construction projects planned on Interstate 84 between Interstate 205 and Hood River, and on the Historic Columbia River Highway between Troutdale and Hood River.
Each project brings benefits to residents, businesses and visitors by increasing safety, extending the lifespan of the highways or completing a gap in walking and biking infrastructure.

What is the Historic Columbia River Highway?
Constructed between 1913 and 1922, the Historic Columbia River Highway laid lightly on the land and takes its users to the most beautiful spots and breathtaking vistas of the Columbia River Gorge.
In the early 1950s, many miles of the Historic Columbia River Highway were damaged or destroyed to pave the way for Interstate 84.
Currently, an effort is underway to restore all 73 miles of the Historic Columbia River Highway from Troutdale to The Dalles. Some segments are accessible to people driving cars and riding bikes, such as near Multnomah Falls. Some segments, known as the Historic Highway State Trail, will be accessible only by people walking, rolling or biking.
One project is underway now, with another scheduled to begin construction in 2022.
