Johnson Creek Blvd is a main road in the Milwaukie area with heavy volumes of vehicle traffic. The road will be repaved between 79th Pl and approximately 500 feet south at 45th Pl. Bell Avenue will also be repaved between Johnson Creek Blvd. and Alberta Ave.
Sidewalk curb ramps and pedestrian push buttons will be checked for compliance with ADA standards and retrofitted or replaced, as needed.
