Newberg Dundee Bypass N-147 Tier 2 FEIS Appendix N: Public Comments and Responses P-14 Nivel 2 DEIS Comentario y Respuestas Entrega: P-14 Tipo: Comment Form Nombre: Marcelo Cruz Title: Ciudadano Negocio/Afi liación: Dirección: 1519 11th Street Newberg, OR 97132 Respuesta al Comentario: ODOT reconoce la preferencia del Sr. Cruz por la Opción de Diseño 5.1C.2 del Segmento 5. La Alternativa Preferida incluye la Opción de Diseño 5.2D en el Segmento 5. ODOT seleccionó esta opción por las siguientes razones: Las Opciones de Diseño 5.1C.2 y 5.1D.2 quitarían 56 residencias cada una, mientras que la Opción de Diseño 5.2D quitaría 48 residencias. Las Opciones de Diseño 5.1C.2 y la 5.1D.2 desplazarían unidades residenciales en ambos lados de la calle 11 entre las calles Columbia Street y Wynooski Street y cerraría la calle 11. La Opción de Diseño 5.2D desplazaría unidades residenciales sólo en el lado sur de la calle 11 y mantendría la calle 11 abierta al tránsito. El alineamiento de la Opción de Diseño 5.2D impactaría más la propiedad de la SP Newsprint, reduciendo los impactos residenciales y del vecindario. Con esta Opción de Diseño, podría ocurrir uno que Newberg Dundee Bypass N-148 Tier 2 FEIS Appendix N: Public Comments and Responses P-14 otro desplazamiento de las estructuras y establecimientos de la SP Newsprint; sin embargo, éstas podrían ser trasladadas a algún otro lugar en terreno de la SP Newsprint. La Opción de Diseño 5.2D está a nivel alto. La opción completamente hundida, la Opción de Diseño 5.1C.2, tendría costos de construcción cerca del doble de los costos de la opción recomendada (5.2D) debido a la problemática asociada con el desagüe de la opción completamente hundida. Response to Comment: ODOT acknowledges Mr. Cruz’s preference on the Design Option 5.1C.2 in Segment 5. The Preferred Alternative includes Design Option 5.2D in Segment 5. ODOT selected this option for the following reasons. Design Options 5.1C.2 and 5.1D.2 would each remove 56 residences, while Design Option 5.2D would remove 48 residences. Design Options 5.1C.2 and 5.1D.2 would displace residential units on both sides of 11th Street between Columbia Street and Wynooski Street and would close 11th Street. Design Option 5.2D would displace residential units only on the south side of 11th Street and keep 11th Street open to traffi c. Design Option 5.2D alignment impacts more of the SP Newsprint property, reducing residential and neighborhood impacts. With this design option, some displacement of SP Newsprint structures and facilities could occur; however, these can be relocated elsewhere on SP Newsprint property. Design Options 5.2D is above-grade. The fully depressed option, Design Option 5.1C.2, would have construction costs that are about twice as much as the recommended option (5.2D) due to related dewatering issues associated with the fully depressed option.

Currently, Kreder Road is being used as a cut-through movement by eastbound traffi c on Oregon 18 that would otherwise be turning left on Oregon 99W heading toward McMinnville. Kreder Road is also used as a cut-through by eastbound traffi c on Oregon 99W that would otherwise be turning right (or westbound) on Oregon 18. With construction of the Bypass, the Oregon 18/Kreder Road intersection will be closed. All traffi c on Oregon 99W and Oregon 18 will use the Dayton interchange. Direct access to Oregon 18 will not be possible from Kreder Road after the Bypass is constructed, thereby eliminating the potential to make either of the “cut-through” movements mentioned in the comment. Newberg Dundee Bypass N-150 Tier 2 FEIS Appendix N: Public Comments and Responses Your comment also mentions that Kreder Road would be connected to the Dayton Interchange and that would increase traffi c on Kreder Road. ODOT selected the design option that connects Kreder Road to Ferry Street in Dayton via a new bridge over the Yamhill River. As a result, traffi c to and from the Dayton Interchange will not have direct access to Kreder Road. ODOT does not see a reason to conduct traffi c studies on Kreder Road because, after the Bypass is constructed, traffi c on Oregon 18 will not have direct access to Kreder Road and Kreder Road will not connected to the Dayton interchange.

The project will relieve congestion on Oregon 99W through Dundee, improve safety and generally benefi t economic development. Newberg Dundee Bypass N-152 Tier 2 FEIS Appendix N: Public Comments and Responses P-17 Tier 2 DEIS Comment and Responses Submittal: P-17 Type: Hearing Testimony Name: Marc Dochez Title: Citizen Business/Affi liation: Address: PO Box 4 Dundee, OR 97115 Response to Comment: ODOT appreciates Mr. Dochez’s suggested changes to the proposed interchange at Oregon 99W and the East Dundee Connector Road and his stated preference for local circulation option 7.5C. ODOT did not examine the addition of an eastbound on-ramp and a westbound off-ramp during project development because the signalized intersection at Oregon 99W and East Dundee Connector Road would operate at a very good level of service in the year 2030 and the ramps would be very costly. Adding an eastbound on-ramp and a westbound off-ramp would: Require constructing the ramps on structure parallel to Oregon 99W and next to the Willamette and Pacifi c Railroad (WPRR) right of way, Newberg Dundee Bypass N-153 Tier 2 FEIS Appendix N: Public Comments and Responses P-17 Require additional right of way and property acquisition from businesses near Dundee and could impact the WPRR, Require a wider structure over 99W and additional lanes on the East Dundee Connector Road for merge lanes, Interfere with traffi c operation at the new Dayton Avenue-Fox Farm Road intersection, Increase project costs. From a traffi c operation standpoint, the signalized intersection at Oregon 99W and East Dundee Connector Road is forecast to operate at a volume-to-capacity ratio of approximately 0.90 in the year 2035. ODOT agrees with Mr.

  • Pricing and Technology Strategies to Address Congestion on and Financing of America’S Roads
    Pricing and Technology Strategies to Address Congestion on and Financing of America’s Roads Oregon’s Approach Testimony before the Subcommittee on Highways and Transit Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure United States House of Representatives September 11, 2019 Travis Brouwer Assistant Director for Public Affairs Oregon Department of Transportation 1 Chairman DeFazio, Ranking Member Graves, Chair Norton, Ranking Member Davis, and other distinguished members of the Subcommittee on Highways and Transit, thank you very much for the opportunity to appear before you today. My name is Travis Brouwer and I am the Assistant Director for Public Affairs at the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT). I am here today to discuss tolling and congestion pricing on state highways in Oregon. Growing Congestion in Portland Pushes Oregon to Toll Today, Oregon is not a toll state. No state‐owned highway, bridge or tunnel is tolled, and this has been the case for decades. However, growing congestion in Portland led the Oregon Legislature in 2017 to direct ODOT to implement tolling on Interstate 5 and Interstate 205 in the Portland metro area. In the lead up to consideration of a major transportation funding bill, both a blue‐ribbon commission created by Oregon Governor Kate Brown and members of the state legislature embarked on statewide transportation listening tours. These efforts revealed that freeway congestion in the Portland metropolitan area is a statewide concern. Communities and businesses across the state, in many cases located hundreds of miles away from Portland, consistently reported struggles with getting products and people to and through the Portland area. Thanks to these listening tours, policymakers recognized that Portland congestion is an urban problem and a rural problem that must be addressed at a statewide level in Oregon.

Local debate about the ICC Project has persisted since it was first discussed in the 1950s. On May 29, 2006, the United States Department of Transportation (“DOT”), through the Federal Highway Administration (“FHWA”), issued the Record of Decision (“ROD”) approving the ICC Project. This action arises out of that approval. Plaintiffs contend that by approving the ICC Project, Defendants violated the National Environmental Policy Act (“NEPA”), 42 U.S.C. §§ 4321 et seq.; the Federal Aid-Highways Act (“FAHA”), 23 U.S.C. § 101 et seq.; the Clean Air Act (“CAA”), 42 U.S.C. § 7401 et seq.; the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (“SAFETEA-LU”), 23 Case 8:07-cv-01480-AW Document 39 Filed 06/05/07 Page 2 of 19 U.S.C. § 134; the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. § 701 et seq.; and the Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA”), 5 U.S.C. § 552.
