Consultation has concluded

Next Steps

The Scholls Ferry Crossing engineering study is complete and supports the vision of the community. THPRD continues to partner with other agencies to seek grant funding, but have not found a compatible source yet.

Our partner Clean Water Services will raise the undercrossing path a few inches this summer to keep the trail drier more frequently. Click on this link to see a graph that shows current water levels on the trail.

Thank you to everyone who participated in the Fanno Creek Trail Crossing at Scholls Ferry Road virtual open house! The high level of community interest in finding solutions to deal with the frequent flooding of the trail was clear from the 533 surveys received. A majority of people supported the proposed at-grade pedestrian crossing.

We completed the Fanno Creek Trail At-Grade Crossing Study at Scholls Ferry Road based on community requests for a permanent solution to flooding of the Fanno Creek Trail under Scholls Ferry Road.

What We Heard

  • Trail users are frustrated and concerned about how often the trail floods and can stay flooded over time.
  • A permanent solution is needed to lessen the impacts of the flooding while also allowing the safe crossing of Scholls Ferry Road.
  • Read more...

What We Learned

  • An “at-grade” signalized pedestrian crossing of Scholls Ferry Road is the most viable long-term solution.
  • In addition to any long-term solution to trail flooding, we can do a better job providing trail users with information about available detour routes and when the trail is flooded.
  • Read more...

What's Next

  • This open house is an opportunity to ask if we are heading in the right direction.
  • If we are headed in the right direction, project partners will then seek needed funding for crossing design and construction.
  • Interim projects to lessen the impacts of flooding.

To support social distancing amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the in-person open house has been canceled.
