Staff with the Oregon Department of Transportation will have a open house Wednesday night in Drain to discuss the eastbound Oregon 38 stop sign on Cedar Street.

It will be held from 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Civic Center Community Hall on West A. Avenue.

An ODOT release 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.

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. Call 541-817-5200 for more information.
