POSTPONED: Southbound OR 217 reduced to one lane from Allen Blvd to Hall Blvd for one weekend

The weekend lane closure of southbound OR 217 between Allen Boulevard and Hall Boulevard originally scheduled for April 26-29 is postponed due to weather. The planned work involves paving a section of the future auxiliary lane which requires dry conditions. We will send new notifications about this work as soon as it is rescheduled.

What is this project?

The OR 217 Auxiliary Lanes Project will construct auxiliary lanes in both directions of OR 217 between Beaverton-Hillsdale Highway and OR 99W. Auxiliary lanes are ramp-to-ramp connections on the highway that help reduce congestion by giving drivers more space and time to merge safely. This decreases conflicts, improves safety and the flow of traffic, and ultimately allows the existing lanes to work more efficiently. We expect up to 73,000 hours of travel time saved each year with these improvements.

We aren't just making improvements to the highway itself. We also need to make the area surrounding OR 217 safer for all users. In partnership with the City of Beaverton and Washington County, we are making targeted improvements to local bicycle and pedestrian routes.
