OR 141 (Hall Boulevard) and SW 72nd Avenue Curb Ramps Project

Design Phase

Region 1: Portland metro and Hood River County (Tigard, Washington)


​We are bringing sidewalk curb ramps into compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accessibility standards on highways throughout Oregon including OR 141 (SW Hall Boulevard) and 72nd Avenue. These upgrades create safer and more accessible highway connections for all sidewalk users.

Impacts

Construction Impacts

​When work begins in 2025, there will be periodic single-lane and sidewalk closures in construction areas. We will provide signed ADA-accessible pedestrian detours around work zones.

To minimize traffic impacts during the day, some night work may be required. Those working or living in the area may hear the noise from heavy equipment, construction trucks, beeping noise when vehicles are in reverse (required by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration), and equipment such as concrete saws, drills and jackhammers.

More information will be shared with residents and businesses in the project area before construction begins, including a noise hotline you can call to help resolve noise-related concerns 24 hours a day.

About

We will upgrade over 120 sidewalk curb ramps at approximately 90 intersections in Tigard along SW Hall Boulevard between OR 99W and Durham Road, and on SW 72nd Avenue between Gonzaga Street and Varns Street, making them ADA compliant.

Work includes:

Upgrading existing ADA curb ramps
This improvement will allow all users, including people in wheelchairs and using mobility aids, to make a smooth transition from the street to the sidewalk.

Lowering crosswalk buttons and installing audible pedestrian signals
These upgrades help all pedestrians cross the street safely by accessing the crosswalk button at signalized intersections and providing an audible cue for the crosswalk signal.

Restriping and realigning crosswalks
These upgrades will improve visibility and create a direct path from curb-to curb, increasing pedestrian safety while crossing the street.

This project is currently in design and expected to be constructed in 2025.

The ODOT ADA PROGRAM is working to bring more than 25,000 curb ramps throughout Oregon into compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards. We are committed to new standards for accessible routes through work zones, outreach and addressing public concerns. Everyone who uses sidewalks along our highways will benefit from this commitment and the improvements we make to the curb ramps.
