Overview

  • Location: NE Sandy Blvd between NE 201st and NE 230th Ave
  • Schedule: Planning begins early 2025

Project Description

Safer Sandy is a planning project to make NE Sandy Blvd safer for everyone to use. Sandy Blvd is an important road because it connects shops, homes, and job centers in Gresham, Fairview and Wood Village. Right now, the road is missing some important features such as sidewalks, bike lanes and accessible bus stops.

The goal of the project is to identify improvements for everyone who walks, rolls, bikes, takes transit, or drives on Sandy so they can share the road safely. This will be an opportunity to consider options such as adding crosswalks, improving street lighting, reducing truck conflict points, new sidewalks and bike lanes as well as other ideas.
