I’m concerned about traffic – what about that?

Development in the Frog Pond Area, Wilsonville and nearby communities will result in more people traveling through and within the area. However, significant improvements are planned for various modes of travel, which should result in increased safety and maintain or improve congestion and reliability on the roadways.

The City’s Transportation System Plan (TSP), updated and adopted in 2013, included the Frog Pond West area as part of the City-wide analysis. Planned transportation facilities include the widening of Boeckman Road, Stafford Road, Advance Road and a new traffic signal at the Stafford Road-Wilsonville Road/Boeckman Road-Advance Road intersection – are already included in the TSP to support Frog Pond’s growth and improve safety. The transportation technical work was updated and verified as part of the Frog Pond planning process (including the entire 500-acre area) in September, 2014. The traffic analysis found that the I-5/Wilsonville Road interchange and study intersections within the vicinity of Frog Pond will operate at a Level of Service D or better (the city’s standard for the PM peak hour) with improvements previously identified.

In the draft concept plan, improvements are planned for Stafford Road, Boeckman Road, Advance Road, and 60th Avenue. New or improved streets, sidewalks, bike lanes, and off-street trails are included throughout the plan. Signalized and unsignalized traffic control devices for intersections are planned at key intersections throughout the area. The City is working closely with the School district to coordinate safe routes to schools and neighborhood connectivity.
