Community members are invited to the design open house for the Neff Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvements Project on Monday, April 7, 2025, 4-6pm at Deschutes Children’s Foundation, East Bend Campus, 2125 NE Daggett Lane. An online option will be available starting on April 7-21, 2025, at bendoregon.gov/neffpedbike. The open house is an opportunity to learn about the project locations, goals, and budget limitations and to provide feedback on proposed improvement alternatives.
The project combines three Transportation System Plan “key route” projects along NE Neff Road and NE Norton Avenue for people who ride bikes, walk and roll. “Key Route” is a term that means the route is designed to provide safe and appealing cross-town connections to schools, parks, and other destinations. Examples include off street multi-use paths, buffered, separated, raised and/or painted bike lanes and widened sidewalks.
This project is funded by the voter approved 2020 Transportation GO Bond, and the project budget is limited. Community input is requested to provide feedback on proposed improvement alternatives and make travel along this corridor safer for all users.
