Abstract:
The Highway 131 Transportation Refinement Plan addresses key
transportation issues along Oregon Highway 131 (Highway 131) as it
travels through the unincorporated communities of Oceanside and
Netarts in western Tillamook County, Oregon (Figure 1). The plan is a
refinement of the 2003 Tillamook County Transportation System Plan
(TSP), which identifies the need for transportation planning on
Highway 131 within and between Oceanside and Netarts.
The objectives of the Highway 131 Transportation Refinement Plan
are as follows:
identify strategies to improve bicycle and pedestrian safety on
Highway 131; identify strategies to address parking and circulation in Oceanside
and Netarts; identify main street strategies in Oceanside and Netarts to address
pedestrian, bicycle, and auto circulation while maintaining the
through function of Highway 131; evaluate an Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT)
Special Transportation Area (STA) designation for the community
of Oceanside. [From the Plan]
