Oregon Department of Transportation

A new traffic signal is going in this week at Rolling Hills Road and Highway 42 near Roseburg this week.

ODOT’s Director Kris Strickler, the second longest serving director in agency history, announced he will step down on Jan. 2, 2026.

Republicans say they’ll insist voters get a say on new taxes in the Oregon transportation bill.

The star-crossed effort to pass a $4 billion transportation package was the the longest — and priciest — special session in more than a decade.

A man killed by a hit and run driver over Labor Day weekend is the third person to die at this 126 intersection in the last four years. The area was scheduled for a safety overhaul. But troubles with federal funding may shrink the project, and push back construction at least a year.

Gov. Tina Kotek is tweaking a proposal to raise billions in taxes for roads and bridge upkeep, a little more than a week before the bill’s fate is tested in a special legislative session.

It’s been nearly a week since Oregon Democrats’ road-funding hopes imploded, but the fallout from that failure is still hitting home.

The long-awaited estimate comes after four public hearings on HB 2025.

Road construction starts soon on the highway that connects Roseburg with Coos Bay.

The bill will include a 15-cent increase in the state’s gas tax along with other tax and fee hikes.

A report from an independent firm chronicled issues at ODOT as lawmakers attempt to pass a transportation package.

Two Oregon House Republicans recently began meeting with Democrats in secret, infuriating colleagues.
