4. HALL & PFAFFLE CLOSURES (HWY 217 PROJECT)
Stephanie Turner and Lili Boicourt gave a brief presentation on the closure of Hall Blvd. to allow
the replacement of the bridge over Hwy 217 at Pfaffle. Most of the prep work has been completed
and the closure is planned for nine months. The dates haven’t been confirmed by the contractor, but
ODOT is expecting the work to start in March 2024. The new bridge will be wider and include bike
lanes and sidewalks. The detour for TriMet and through traffic will use Greenburg Rd, and there will
be temporary bike and pedestrian bridge installed prior to the closure. The Hwy 217 on ramps will
also be closed for two months as part of the project. The highway closure will take place at night
and on the weekend. ODOT will work with Washington County on signal timing in the area to help
alleviate congestion at the detour. An extensive outreach campaign will take place once the dates are
set.
5. RED ROCK CREEK TRAIL FINAL ALIGNMENT
Gary had a presentation on the two-mile preferred alternative for the trail including the Timeline,
Project Outcomes, Preferred Alignment, Implementation, Prioritization of segments, Estimated
costs, and Upcoming Meetings. He discussed the segments: Fanno Creek Trail to Potso Dog Park,
Potso Dog Park to SW Hunziker St, SW Hunziker St. to HWY 217, and HWY 217 to Dartmouth
St., Costco Driveway to SW 72nd Ave., and SW 72nd Ave. to SW 68th Parkway which is the steepest
segment due to topography. Funding to implement trail segments will come from a variety of
sources including new development and grants.

8. NON-AGENDA ITEMS
A. Tigard will hold a drone light show in lieu of fireworks for the Independence Day
celebration in Cook Park this year. Oregon legal fireworks will still be for sale in Tigard, but
not allowed in Cook Park/
B. Michael asked about the impact on Tigard of the potential purchase of the golf course by
Washington Square Mall by the Portland Diamond Project. Dave said there are a lot of
unknowns including the fact that ODOT will need to weigh in. There will be required
studies and improvements required, but it will be a long process.
C. The speed limit along Burnham is pending review by ODOT before the speed limit can be
reduced to 20 mph. There are other Tigard streets awaiting review as well. Courtney and
Dave will check with ODOT and email an update. There was also a question about the new
crosswalk at Main St. and whether it would include bollards. Courtney and Dave will follow
up.
D. A question on tolling coming before TTAC for discussion was raised. Dave is working to get
the ODOT team before Council for a briefing to start the process. The topic of diversion
onto local roads is a more complex issue. Metro has a good webinar that Dave will send the
link to.
