The City of Oregon City Transportation Advisory Committee met on November 12, 2026. No contract awards, bids, or purchasing approvals were identified. Staff discussed the Main Street project, including planned flashing signals, lane markings, and possible driveway closure near the 14th and Main intersection. Committee members requested further study of pedestrian-safety options, including crosswalk changes and signal configurations; staff agreed to bring back additional analysis. The project is subject to a schedule tied to state lottery bond funds, and no change to the project scope or spending was approved at this meeting.

Staff reviewed the Transportation System Plan and transportation funding. The plan lists 354 projects, while city transportation revenues are constrained and projects generally require available cash because the city charter limits borrowing without voter approval. Staff cited a roughly $6 million estimate for the Highway 213 and Beaver Creek Road project, with about 60% expected to be gas-tax funded, and reported approximately $22 million in grant funding secured over the past 11.5 years. Members discussed possible local transportation taxes or bonds and public outreach to support infrastructure funding, but took no action. The committee approved meeting minutes and elected Bruce as chair; the vice-chair selection was deferred for a later vote.
