Current & Past Projects - Corvallis Area Metropolitan Planning Organization

Current Projects

The Corvallis Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) has contributed to a variety of projects exploring the region's transportation system and preparing for the future. Information on several ongoing projects can be found below. Info on past projects can be found at the bottom of the page.

Philomath Boulevard Functional Design

The Corvallis Area MPO is partnering with the Oregon Department of Transportation to develop Functional Designs for the US-20/OR-34 (Philomath Boulevard) corridor between the intersections of SW 53^rd Street and SW 15^th Street in Corvallis. The corridor is a regional priority for both CAMPO and ODOT and has documented issues relating to congestion and safety dating back at least 15 years. CAMPO is leading a design effort in collaboration with Kittelson and Associates that will develop conceptual sketches for the segments and intersections along the corridor identified above. Some additional reference documents are available below.

A virtual open house for Philomath Boulevard was held on Wednesday, May 8, 2024. The slides and recording of the webinar can be found at the links below.

Corvallis to Albany Multiuse Path Project

Current Status: Benton County received close to $2 million to complete Preliminary Design (30%) for the remainder of the path. More details will be available soon!

The only bicycle and pedestrian routes that currently exist between Corvallis and Albany are high volume, arterial state highways that have high-speed traffic, inadequate shoulder widths, and hazardous intersections. As such, CAMPO is actively supporting Benton County's effort to establish an off-street all ages and abilities multiuse path for people walking and riding bikes between Corvallis and Albany.

The importance of a separated multiuse path between Corvallis and Albany has been highlighted in a number of state, local and regional studies including the CAMPO 2040 Regional Transportation Plan (2017) and the Benton County Transportation System Plan (2019). Ongoing projects updates will be provided on this page.

Past Projects

Adair Village Trails Plan

The Adair Village Trails Plan was a collaborative effort with a project team including City of Adair Village; Benton County Public Works; Benton County Natural Areas, Parks and Events; and the Corvallis Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO).

The purpose of the Plan is to serve as a blueprint for creating an accessible, all-ages and abilities network of paved multiuse paths, walking trails, and separated bike lanes throughout Adair Village. The plan documents future trail improvements and prioritizes local investment in Adair Village’s multi-modal network of trails.

The plan was adopted by the Adair Village City Council in January of 2023, the final plan can be found below.

Intelligent Transportation System Plan

CAMPO participated in the development of the Central Willamette Valley Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Plan (2010), which defines advanced technologies that support regional transportation initiatives such as promoting travel options, optimizing transportation system performance, and reducing the frequency and effects of incidents.

The regional vision for ITS in the Central Willamette Valley is to: Manage and operate a safe, multi-modal transportation system that makes the best use of available capacity and optimizes existing and future operations investments in the Central Willamette Valley.

Philomath School Circulation Study

The Corvallis Area MPO assisted the City of Philomath with assessing safety and circulation issues surrounding their school campuses. While all of the schools are not immediately adjacent, their close proximity, location in a residential neighborhood, and intersection with a through route create congestion and safety issues for students traveling to or from school. CAMPO in assistance with Kittelson and Associates, evaluated existing conditions and helped the City Council and School Board prioritize improvements to improve both safety and circulation around the school campuses.
