The Oregon Department of Transportation is inviting public input on the use of congestion pricing to help improve travel times on Interstates 5 and 205 in the Portland metro area.

Congestion pricing is basically tolling on specific parts of the freeway intended to improve traffic flow. Congestion pricing systems charge higher prices for driving on a road when demand is greater. ODOT is asking for public input during a series of open house events and online. The next live event is 10 a.m.-1 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 27 at Lloyd Center, Level 1 near the ice rink, 2201 Lloyd Center. Read more about upcoming public input events here.

The survey on polling is required because of a directive from the Oregon legislature to look at congestion alternatives. Keep Oregon Moving directs the Oregon Transportation Commission to develop a proposal for value pricing on I-5 and I-205 from the state line to the junction of the two freeways just south of Tualatin, to reduce congestion.

The final live event will be held Tuesday, January 30 in Vancouver.

Maintenance work on SR 14 westbound in Vancouver at milepost 3, has the Evergreen Boulevard exit closed to all traffic from Wednesday, January 24, until further notice. Use the South Lieser Road or Columbia House Boulevard exits.
