Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvements

Expanding Options for Biking, Walking, and Rolling

This project includes targeted improvements to local bicycle and pedestrian routes, in partnership with City of Beaverton and Washington County. The improvements complete the north/south parallel bicycle and pedestrian network and included key enhancements to east/west routes.

New Sidewalks and Bike Lanes on Hall Boulevard in Beaverton

We built a new sidewalk and bike lanes on the Hall Boulevard overpass between Cascade Avenue and Scholls Ferry Road in Beaverton by widening the bridge by 19 feet. This extra width allows space for a new sidewalk and bike lane on the north side of the overpass and a new bike lane on the south side of the overpass. Before this work, there were no marked bike lanes on this overpass and there was a sidewalk on just one side. These changes provide a much-needed connection for people bicycling, walking and rolling between Scholls Ferry Road and Cascade Avenue and allow all travelers more space to cross the overpass safely.

In late 2024, the new sidewalk on the north side of the overpass opened and we are continuing to work on some updates to the south sidewalk. Intermittent nighttime lane closures may continue through early 2025. A layer of final pavement and final lane striping will be completed in 2025.

North side: 7 foot sidewalk and 6 foot bike lane. 2 travel lanes each way. South side: 6 foot bike lane and 5 foot sidewalk.

New configuration of the Hall Boulevard overpass that includes sidewalks and bicycle lanes in both directions. 

New Sidewalk on North Side of Denney Road

We widened the sidewalk on the north side of Denney Road from the Fanno Creek Trail to 105th Avenue. The wider 12.5-foot sidewalk opened for use in 2024.

Cross section. The north sidewalk is 12.5 feet. There are 2 westbound lanes and 1 eastbound travel lane.

Extending the Fanno Creek Trail

We partnered with the City of Beaverton to extend the Fanno Creek Trail along the east side of OR 217 to Allen Boulevard. This is a section that was missing and completes the OR 217 parallel bike path network from OR 99W to Allen Boulevard.
