Project Description
We’re building a better, safer way for people biking and walking to cross OR 99W: a footbridge over the highway near the intersection of Sunset Boulevard.
Why is this needed?
- North of the highway is the new high school and the Sherwood West expansion, which adds housing and commerce.
- South of the highway is new housing near Brookman Road, the YMCA and a new skatepark.
It all adds up to more kids and adults crossing 99W to reach all those destinations.
We have several new trails ending near the intersection of 99W and SW Sunset Boulevard. Now we’ll connect them with a safe, convenient span over the highway.
Timeline: Construction begins in February 2024 and continues through summer 2025.
Groundbreaking Event
In a short ceremony, a few City officials will give speeches and “break ground” with golden shovels to commemorate the beginning of bridge construction.
