PROJECT
PURPOSE
STATEMENT
Springfield’s Main Street is consistently ranked as one of the most unsafe city streets in Oregon based on the severity and frequency of traffic crashes. ODOT and the City must address this problem to save lives, reduce injuries, and lessen property damage due to crashes. The purpose of the
Main Street Safety Project is to select
infrastructure solutions that will make Main
Street safer for people walking, biking,
driving, and taking transit. The selected safety improvements will provide for the movement of goods and people, support the economic viability of the corridor, accommodate current bus service and future transit solutions, and complement safety education and traffic enforcement.
