ODOT, in partnership with the City of Molalla, is improving safety at the intersection of Oregon 213 and Toliver Road in Molalla by constructing a roundabout.
Roundabout opens soon
We're putting the finishing touches on the new roundabout at OR 213 and Toliver Road and it's scheduled to open by Saturday morning, Aug. 19, ahead of schedule!
Thank you for your patience while we constructed the roundabout. We know closing the intersection had a big impact on traffic in the area. Please read below or watch a video for some reminders about how to navigate through the roundabout so you're prepared when it opens.
In the coming weeks, you can expect some periodic nighttime lane closures with flaggers directing traffic on OR 213 and periodic daytime lane closures on Toliver Road.

For people riding a bike
You can navigate the roundabout like a motor vehicle would, or use the sidewalk and crosswalks. If you use the sidewalk, yield to people walking, travel at a walking speed or walk your bike.
For people using the sidewalk
Stay on the sidewalk or in designated crosswalks. When preparing to cross, watch for oncoming vehicles to make sure they stop for you before proceeding. Cross one direction of travel at a time and wait at the islands in the crosswalk until your path is clear.
Emergency Vehicles in Roundabouts
Do not enter a roundabout when emergency vehicles are approaching. Pull over to the right. Allow other vehicles to clear the intersection so the emergency vehicles can move through the roundabout. Never stop while inside the roundabout. Instead, move through and exit the roundabout. Once you exit, pull over to the right shoulder and allow emergency vehicles to pass.
About the project
ODOT, in partnership with the City of Molalla, is improving safety at the intersection of OR 213 and Toliver Road in Molalla by constructing a roundabout.
The intersection of OR 213 and Toliver Road was controlled by stop signs on Toliver Road and has a high rate of crashes. A roundabout will improve safety by reducing sharp turns while also accommodating the type of traffic that uses it, including large vehicles like trucks, buses and agricultural equipment.
Nighttime Noise
Those living or working in the area may hear noise from construction. A 24/7 nighttime noise hotline is be available for noise concerns: 503-276-7893
