new undercrossing.
As we shared last week, the Oregon Department of Transportation is in the final stages of planning for a new undercrossing on the I-205 multi-use path where it crosses SE Division. ODOT staffers report a solid turnout at their open house on Tuesday night where they unveiled the design and asked for public comment.
In case you missed the open house, I just received the official rendering of the design. ODOT is showing two views of the undercrossing.
The aerial view shows how it will connect with the existing path…
And a view from the new path itself (looking south) gives you an idea of what it will look like while riding…
ODOT also promises that the new path will offer “efficient connectivity” to the existing path, ample lighting, and good visibility/sight lines.
ODOT Community Affairs staffers Shelli Romero says the estimated project completion time is summer 2013.
