Canby-Marquam Hwy Safety Improvements

Many crashes occur on a windy segment of Canby-Marquam Hwy near Kraxberger Road (approximately between MP 5.05 and MP 5.45) due to drivers leaving the roadway, especially in wet conditions. Safety improvements include repaving to improve pavement friction, two radar-activated curve warning signs with lights, and enhanced safety signing.
