Our public art plan provides a vision for public art in Sherwood, mapping a way forward for neighborhoods, businesses, civic groups, and city staff to implement art in public spaces.
Public art at its best invites fresh discovery, promotes meaningful connections, and adds to the livability and vibrancy of our city.

The Murals Plan includes proposal forms and the specific process for implementing murals in Sherwood. Anyone can submit an idea for a mural design or location to the Commission—including individual artists or a group of artists, a building owner, a business owner, a non-profit organization, a citizen or citizen group, or a neighborhood association.

The Transportation System Plan (TSP) is intended to prepare for and accommodate the future growth through year 2035 in the most efficient manner possible. Without the big picture that the TSP provides, maintaining acceptable transportation network performance could not be achieved in an efficient manner. This Plan updates Sherwood’s original TSP, which was adopted in the year 2005 for a horizon year of 2020.
The TSP provides a long term guide for city transportation investments by incorporating the vision of the community into an equitable and efficient transportation system. The plan evaluates the current transportation system and outlines strategies and projects that are important to protecting and enhancing the quality of life in Sherwood through 2035. The TSP also provides a foundation from which to evaluate and determine what improvements could or should be required as part of private development projects. Plan elements can be implemented by the City, private developers, and state or federal agencies. A TSP is required by the State of Oregon to help integrate the City’s transportation investment plans into the statewide transportation system. The plan balances the needs of walking, bicycling, driving, transit and freight into an equitable and efficient transportation system.

The Downtown Sherwood Streetscape Master Plan was developed over a six month period in 2003. The design consultant team was comprised of landscape architects, civil engineers and lighting designers. The consultant team also relied on the services of a railway engineer. The design team worked through concepts and technical issues with the Sherwood Engineering Department staff. Throughout the design process, a number of goals were established that guided the development of the Streetscape Master Plan.
The three primary goals were:
• To provide a pedestrian-friendly environment;
• To create a design that is unique to Sherwood; and
• To create vibrant streets.
