This group of projects will construct transportation safety improvements in multiple locations across Bend.


Between 2012 and 2015, the City completed a safety study of crashes on roadways throughout Bend and received feedback from the public to help prioritize low cost, high benefit safety improvements across the community. More information on this prior planning work is available at the City’s Transportation Planning website.
