An Oregon Department of Transportation repaving project will bring two new mid-block crossings to SE Powell Boulevard.
The $4 million (estimated) Powell Boulevard Pavement Preservation project will begin in Spring 2010 and will include repaving Powell from SE 51st Avenue to Interstate 205. In addition, ODOT will build new sidewalks (in compliance with ADA), and two new mid-block crossings.
The new crossings (see photo rendering below) will be near SE 57th Ave and SE 75th Avenues.
ODOT spokesperson Michael Mason says the project will go to bid in December and work is scheduled for completion by the end of 2010. To learn more about this project, attend an open house tonight in Southeast Portland:
