Sherwood Transportation System Plan Update Virtual Open House is Now Open!

The City of Sherwood invites you to participate in the Transportation System Plan (TSP) Update Virtual Open House, now available through Monday, August 3.

Whether you walk, bike, drive, take transit, or roll, your input will help shape Sherwood’s transportation system for the next 20 years.

The Virtual Open House provides an overview of:

• What a Transportation System Plan is and why it’s being updated
• Work completed to date
• Key findings from the project
• Upcoming project milestones
• Opportunities to provide feedback
•  Sherwood TSP Virtual Open House: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GjSb641nDG8

Share Your Ideas on the WikiMap

As part of the Virtual Open House, we encourage you to explore our interactive WikiMap. The WikiMap allows you to pinpoint locations throughout Sherwood and share your thoughts about:

• Areas that feel unsafe or difficult to navigate
• Missing sidewalks, bike lanes, or trail connections
• Traffic concerns
• Opportunities to improve walking, biking, driving, or transit
• Other transportation ideas you’d like the project team to consider

Your local knowledge is invaluable and will help identify transportation needs and priorities as the Transportation System Plan is developed.

The Virtual Open House and WikiMap are available through Monday, August 3.

Thank you for helping shape the future of transportation in Sherwood. We look forward to hearing your ideas and working together to create a safer, more connected transportation system for everyone.

Visit the Virtual Open House and WikiMap today and share your feedback before August 3!

What is a Transportation System Plan?

A Transportation System Plan (TSP) is a comprehensive process that helps shape the future of transportation in our community. It guides long-term investments in roads, sidewalks, bike lanes, transit, and other mobility options to ensure a safe, efficient, and sustainable transportation network. This includes enhancing active transportation, promoting multi-modal travel options, and ensuring safe routes to school for our youngest travelers.

The current Sherwood TSP was adopted in 2014. State law requires the TSP be updated every 10-years.  This TSP Update project will reflect changes that have occurred to the City since 2014 and provide a 20-year horizon for transportation planning.  The Project will update all elements of the current TSP and may identify potential amendments to the Comprehensive Plan, Community Development Code and other implementing documents.

You can view the City’s adopted Transportation System Plan, which was developed in 2005 and continues to guide current transportation policies and investments. While this TSP Update will build on the foundation of the existing plan, reviewing the original TSP can provide helpful context on past goals, project priorities, and how Sherwood’s transportation network has evolved over time.

Questions the TSP Update Process will Help Answer

• What do we have now?
• What do we want?
• What will we need in the future?
• How will we fund our projects?
• What should we do first?

Regulatory Compliance, Funding & Timeline

In Oregon, an updated TSP is needed to meet requirements of the State Transportation Planning Rule (OAR 660-012-100), Regional Transportation Plan policies, Metro Urban Growth Management Functional Plan standards, and to manage development expected in the next twenty years.

The TSP Update is fully funded by local funds which allows for greater local control and flexibility, ensuring the project aligns directly with community needs without the constraints of state or federal grant requirements. It allows the city more autonomy in decision-making and project direction.

Our community’s TSP Update will began in April 2025 and is expected to take 18-21 months to complete. Throughout the process, we will assess current transportation needs, explore future opportunities, and develop strategies to improve connectivity, safety, and mobility for all residents.

Project Leadership

This project will be led by our dedicated Sherwood staff and the Consulting Team from Kittelson & Associates, who will work collaboratively to steer the planning process. Their expertise, alongside contributions from advisory committees and public engagement, will ensure that the final plan reflects both technical excellence and community priorities.
