What's happening now?
Construction is paused to address an underground storage tank at the southeast corner of the intersection. We expect to resume construction soon.
Nearby TriMet stops will be temporarily closed and a Biketown station will be relocated during construction. Please refer to TriMet.org and the Biketown app for service impacts.
Project Background
PBOT is replacing the existing, aging traffic signal to ensure safe, reliable operations.
This project will also make safety and operational improvements, including:
- Crosswalk on the west leg of the intersection will help people cross N Rosa Parks Way.
- Dedicated left-turn lane from southbound N Greeley Avenue to eastbound Rosa Parks Way will help more people get through the intersection.
- Curb ramps will be rebuilt to meet modern accessibility standards.
- Protected left-turn signals from N Rosa Parks Way to Greeley Avenue will help prevent collisions between left-turning drivers and people in crosswalks.
- Driveway closure on the northeast corner will reduce conflicts people between driving and people using the sidewalk or transit stops.
New fiber communications will also allow for advanced signal coordination along N Greeley Avenue. This will especially benefit transit riders via near-term implementation of next-generation transit signal priority, which helps buses move faster and more reliably through congested areas.
Project Funding
$2.5 million from local and state sources
