Transportation Advisory Committee - July 9, 2026

The City of Oregon City's Transportation Advisory Committee held a meeting on July 9, 2026, focusing primarily on updates and discussions related to the city's roadway improvement and maintenance programs. Key procurement-related topics included the 2026 roadway improvement program, with detailed reports on in-house paving projects, slurry seal and micro seal applications, and rehabilitation efforts such as the Malala Avenue project. Budget figures were discussed, including approximately $130,000 allocated for asphalt in the in-house paving project and $239,909 for the slurry seal project, noting increased costs due to oil price fluctuations. The committee also reviewed the transition of winter weather operation materials storage to a new public works facility, highlighting infrastructure investments like new 6,000-gallon tanks for mag chloride and sand storage. Additionally, the committee discussed coordination with Clackamas County regarding road maintenance jurisdiction and upcoming capital projects, including the 205 improvement and downtown transit center projects. No formal votes on contracts or vendor selections were recorded, but the meeting included planning and oversight of ongoing and future capital and maintenance projects with procurement implications.
