Oregon lawmakers are coming to Tillamook next Tuesday, June 18 for their next stop on the Statewide Transportation Safety and Sustainability Outreach Tour. The goal of the tour is to help legislators understand the unique needs of Oregonians and the challenges we face in maintaining a safe, accessible and reliable transportation system across the state.
In Tillamook, we are working with the local transit agency and city officials to facilitate a tour of the area for legislators. We plan to show them where we are facing worsening challenges due to diverse geography and climate change. For example, this heavily forested coastal area often experiences heavy rains that lead to rock and mudslides, highway sinkholes and flooding. Our crews need to respond quickly to these incidents in order to get roads open and make sure people get to their destinations safely. Lawmakers are seeking community guidance while they plan a 2025 transportation package, and the public is invited to testify on June 18 at the Tillamook meeting, which will be held at the Port of Tillamook Bay Officer Mess Hall from 5 to 7 pm.
