Transportation Construction Projects

Clackamas County is responsible for maintaining the integrity and safety of over 1400 miles of County Roads and 165 bridges in its 1868 square mile territory.  The County's transportation system represents a one billion dollar investment that must continually be maintained and improved to handle new demands.  The Capital Imporovement Plan and Program for the County documents both the 20-Year CIP Plan as identified by the Long Range Planning Group and the 5-Year CIP Program which are high-priority, funded projects that are executed by staff in the Engineering Division.

There are, at any one time, approximately 40 projects in active phases of planning design and construction.  The 20-Year Plan lists over 200 transportation improvement projects that are projects to be needed over the next twenty years.  However, current cost estimates show a $400 million funding shortfall for the anticipated project needs.
