The Oregon Department of Transportation is working to reduce traffic jams and make your trip more reliable and safer. Help us improve mobility through the Portland metropolitan area by participating in the four comment periods below.


Regional Mobility Pricing Project
What are we planning?
Reducing traffic and providing more reliable travel by applying congestion pricing, also called variable rate tolling, on all lanes of I-5 and I-205 in the Portland metropolitan area. Toll rates would vary based on time and location.

How can you get involved?
Give us your input between November 18, 2022 through January 6, 2023. Receive updates at oregontolling.org.


I-5 Rose Quarter Improvement Project
What are we planning?
Adding auxiliary lanes and shoulders that smooth traffic flow on I-5 between I-84 and I-405, reconnecting the Historic Albina neighborhood with a highway cover, and adding street improvements that will enhance safety and access on local streets.

How can you get involved?
Participate in the public comment period for the project’s Supplemental Environmental Assessment from November 15, 2022, through January 4, 2023, at midnight. Learn about the project and proposed design changes, review the document’s key findings and share your input by visiting the online open house or project website


I-205 Toll and Improvements Project
What are we planning?
Improving I-205 from Stafford Road to OR 213, including a third travel lane in each direction and increasing earthquake resilience. Variable-rate tolls would manage congestion and raise revenue to complete the improvements.

How can you get involved?
Review and comment on the formal environmental review document in early 2023. Sign-up for weekly construction updates for the I-205 Improvements Project at i205corridor.org.


Oregon Highway Plan
What are we planning?
Updating the plan to modernize toll policies and connect to the state’s equity and climate goals. This influences policy on use of toll revenue.  This public comment period ended on September 15. Thank you to everyone who participated.
