Project Overview

The Brown Road Improvements Project was identified in the City’s Transportation System Master Plan as Urban Upgrade Project UU-03 and approved in the West Side Urban Renewal Plan. This project upgrades Brown Road to better align with current City standards for urban roadways. Improvements focus on enhancing safety, accessibility, and connectivity for all users. The project area extends along Brown Road from SW Wilsonville Road to SW Evergreen Drive. Planned upgrades include constructing shared use paths, stormwater management facilities, and traffic calming measures.

These improvements will provide safer and more efficient access to surrounding neighborhoods and improve overall travel conditions for drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists.

FAQ's

How does construction impact traffic?

For most of the construction period, the contractor will maintain at least two 10-foot-wide travel lanes to allow for two-way traffic. At times, certain activities may require the use of flaggers to safely guide vehicles through the work zone.

During construction of the raised pedestrian crossing at Parkwood Lane, Brown Road will be closed to through traffic for a few consecutive weeks. A detour route will be provided along Camelot to help maintain access.
