Info for community members driving in and out of SherwoodRed-Light And Speed Safety Camera Program Returning Following Construction Completion
The City of Tualatin is notifying motorists that the automated traffic safety camera located at the intersection of SW Tualatin-Sherwood Road and SW Avery Street has been reactivated following an extended period of inactivity during nearby construction activities.
The safety camera system is designed to improve traffic safety by reducing dangerous driving behaviors at the intersection. The system will monitor and document vehicles that enter the intersection after the traffic signal has turned red, as well as vehicles traveling 11 miles per hour or more above the posted speed limit.
To provide drivers with an opportunity to adjust to the camera's return, the City has implemented a 30-day warning period, which began on June 10, 2026. During this period, drivers who commit a red-light or speed violation detected by the camera will receive a warning notice by mail rather than a citation.
After the 30-day warning period concludes, on July 9, 2026, eligible violations will result in citations being issued and mailed to the registered owner of the vehicle in accordance with Oregon law.
Studies have shown that automated traffic enforcement can help reduce red-light running, excessive speeding, and the risk of serious crashes at signalized intersections. The City encourages all motorists to obey traffic signals, follow posted speed limits, and drive attentively.

Although he was arrested in Linn County, he lives near Sherwood and could’ve contacted juveniles throughout the Portland Metro Area.WILSONVILLE MAN ARRESTED IN LURING CASE
Linn County Sheriff Michelle Duncan reports on May 28, 2026, Linn County Sheriff’s Office Detectives arrested Christopher Jay Webb, 34, of Wilsonville after an eight-month long sex abuse investigation.
The investigation revealed Webb used the Snapchat app to contact a 17-year-old female, from Sweet Home, who was unknown to him. Knowing her age, he sent multiple images and videos of sexually explicit content of himself to the female. He also solicited similar content from her. During the investigation, investigators determined Webb used Snapchat to communicate with other juveniles for similar purposes. In conversations with the juveniles, Webb indicated that he worked at Coffee Creek Correctional Facility.
After executing search warrants for digital evidence and analyzing accounts and digital media, Webb was arrested and lodged at the Linn County Jail on one count of Luring a Minor. The investigation is ongoing and may lead to additional charges.
Based on the investigation, it is believed there are other victims who have yet to be identified. Christopher Webb’s photograph has been attached in an attempt to locate other victims that may have been contacted by him. If anyone has information regarding this investigation, or may have been a victim themselves, they are encouraged to contact Detective Dakotah Hinrichs at 541-967-3820.
