The Oregon Department of Transportation will hold an open house on Wednesday November 15th to discuss the eastbound Oregon 38 stop sign at Cedar Street in Drain.
The event will be held at the Drain Civic Center Community Hall on West A Avenue.
Dan Latham of ODOT said stop signs are rarely placed on state highways and staff believes the sign is a factor in many crashes and near crashes at the intersection. Latham said at the meeting, ODOT staff will discuss the stop sign, explain recent efforts to improve safety and the flow of traffic and answer questions from the community. Comment cards will be provided.
ODOT staff will review feedback from the community before making any traffic control changes at the intersection.
For more information, contact Latham at 541-817-5200.
