Engineering and design
This intersection safety project will convert the intersection at SE Flavel Street and SE 72nd Avenue to a four way stop and will add additional illumination to the intersection. The project will also update corner ramps to current ADA standards and improve poor pavement conditions.
Design in 2023-2026 and Construction in Spring 2027
Construction Schedule
This project is currently in design. Construction is anticipated in spring 2027.
Project Scope & Background
This project will improve safety at the intersection of SE Flavel Street and SE 72nd Avenue in the Brentwood-Darlington neighborhood. This location was identified as having a high incidence of crashes, with more than 40% of crashes being coded as left turning. Additionally, more than 50% of crashes occurred at night. The project will convert the intersection to a four way stop to reduce conflicts and add additional illumination at the intersection. Corner ramps will be upgraded to current ADA standards, and poor pavement conditions will be addressed.
The project is currently funded through the All Roads Transportation Safety (ARTS) program administered by the Oregon Department of Transportation, and a local match from the City of Portland. In early scoping, PBOT and ODOT staff identified this as a high benefit-to-cost ratio safety project.
