INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION

Project Goals and Objectives For many years, Oregon City has envisioned safer connections between the Canemah and Project Goals McLoughlin neighborhoods, the Willamette River and Willamette Falls, and celebrated parks that attract residents and visitors of all ages and abilities. The McLoughlin-Canemah Trail should... Currently, there are no safe and viable pedestrian or bicycle connections between the Canemah Neighborhood and the McLoughlin Promenade including to points north such as Jon Storm Park, • Provide an attractive route of travel for people walking and biking Clackamette Park, and Downtown Oregon City. The McLoughlin-Canemah Trail (MCT) will between the McLoughlin Promenade and Canemah Children’s Park provide these much needed pedestrian and bicycle connections for the community. that connects residential areas, parks, and businesses. In 2016, the City of Oregon City, in partnership with the Oregon City Trail Alliance, the McLoughlin Neighborhood Association, and the Clackamas County Historical Society, was granted a Nature in Neighborhoods grant of $25,000 to fund a planning effort for the MCT, a • Striv e to provide facilities that serve all ages and abilities, including segment of the larger Oregon City Loop Trail. The City provided a local match through funding significant staff time and volunteer hours. The objective of the grant-funded trail plan project people with disabilities or mobility limitations. was to determine an alignment for a permanent trail, and to identify an Interim trail alignment and safety upgrades. While each entity in the partnership had priorities and reasons for supporting the project, the overall objectives were to create a safer pedestrian and bicycle route between • Minimize risk and conflicts between automobile traffic, bicycle two neighborhoods while connecting city amenities along the way. traffic, and pedestrians. Goals for this trail were developed based on the results of a survey taken by the project’s Community Advisory Group members, and from conversations with group members and City staff. The Community Advisory Group approved the goals after its first meeting in July 2017. • Pro vide a trail design that is context-sensitive, particularly to These goals were used to develop the trail alternatives and to evaluate the alternatives against each other. Goals are listed to the right. the Canemah National Register Historic District, McLoughlin Site Setting Promenade, and the McLoughlin Conservation District. Located in Oregon City approximately 15 miles southeast of downtown Portland, the McLoughlin-Canemah Trail study area northern trail-head is located approximately half a mile south of Downtown Oregon City. • Provide experiences and views of Willamette Falls.

This internal work set the stage for the public planning process for the MCT. Regional plans that include the MCT and/or the Oregon City Loop Trail include the Metro Regional Transportation Plan and Regional Trails Plan. The concept plan for the Willamette Falls Riverwalk, which will provide public access to Willamette Falls from downtown Oregon City, was finalized in June 2017. The Riverwalk includes a pedestrian bridge from the old Blue Heron Mill site up to the McLoughlin Promenade. While the concept plan presents several options for the exact location of that pedestrian bridge, all of them are located near the VFW building on the bluff. Adopted plans show the MCT connecting to the Promenade and the pedestrian bridge.

S. 2nd & Tumwater Intersection Treatment

To provided an adequate trail facility for the Interim Alignment that connects between Tumwater Dr and McLoughlin Blvd, it is recommended that the right turn lane on S. 2nd St be reduced (re-striped) from 15’ to 11’. This would allow the 6’ sidewalk on the north side of S. 2nd St to be widened to 10’.

Because S. 2nd St is a bus route, it is important that any design changes made to accommodate the McLoughlin- Canemah Trail not interfere with bus operations.

Analysis using AutoTurn within an AutoCAD Civil 3D environment suggests that reducing the right turn lane width to 11’ would not prevent buses from making the right turn from S. 2nd Street onto McLoughlin Blvd. However, Trimet should be engaged as a project stakeholder early in the MCT implementation process to test any proposed design in the field using an actual bus.

As part of the Long-Term Alignment implementation, the intersection at S. 2nd Street and Tumwater Drive requires safety improvements.

Assuming a single paved path on the west/north side of Tumwater Drive along the Museum of the Oregon Territory parking lot, the following intersection design treatments are recommended:

• Raised crosswalk with a landscaped island on S. 2nd Street. This will calm traffic, serve as a gateway threshold for traffic calming into the city from McLoughlin Blvd/Hwy 99E, and will shorten the crossing distance for trail users. • Curb ramps with a marked crosswalk on the south segment of Tumwater Drive

Old Canemah Park Trail, West Entrance and Canemah Neighborhood The following treatments are recommended to increase comfort, safety, and accessibility for trail users as they pass through the parking lot of Old Canemah Park:

• White pavement markings, set 12’ apart to match trail width, that delineate the primary trail route through the parking lot. This route follows the vehicular drive isle to avoid reducing vehicle parking spaces in this already constrained lot. • Pedestrian/bicycle pavement markings placed within the delineated travel path to communicate intended use of the space to both trail users and motorists. • A wayfinding map kiosk located close to the trail will serve to inform visitors about the larger trail network and its connections, help guide trail users along the correct route, and highlight potential destinations that trail users might be interested in.

As the MCT continues through the Canemah Neighborhood along 3rd Ave, Ganong St, and 4th Ave, similar approaches are recommended to delineate space including shared- use pavement markings, shared-use signage, and wayfinding signage.

Next Steps and Implementation The adoption of the McLoughlin-Canemah Trail Plan will amend the City’s Parks Master Plan, Trails Master Plan, and Transportation System Plan to reflect the trail and add and refine capital project lists. In late 2017, the City Commission will be asked to approve amendments to these plans to reflect the new trail.

City staff, with the help of stakeholders, will identify internal resources and apply for additional grant funds to implement the trail. Potential funding sources include Parks System Development Charges, Transportation System Development Charges, and state grants such as Connect Oregon and ODOT Enhance. Next steps are described in the table below.
