US101: parkview DR - lucky LN (BROOKINGS)

The Oregon Department of Transportation received a $1.5 million Formula Grant award from the Federal Highway Administration on September 1, 2022 under the Highway Planning and Construction program. The grant will fund construction projects along US101 in Brookings, Oregon to improve pedestrian and bicyclist safety. Specifically, the Department will construct a bike lane and sidewalk along the east side of US101 from Parkview Drive to Lucky Lane. Deficient sidewalk will also be replaced and a short sidewalk segment added on Ransom Street. Flashing lights will be installed at the intersections of Ransom Avenue and Arnold Avenue. Additionally, a four-lane section of US101 will be converted to three lanes between Heather Lane and Arnold Lane. This award supports infrastructure improvements to increase safe mobility options in the specified area through sidewalk, bike lane, and road construction managed by the Oregon Department of Transportation.
