Transportation System

The Lake Oswego Transportation System includes more than 178 miles of streets, 26 traffic signals, 12.0 miles of pedestrian pathways, and shared ownership of the Jefferson Street Rail Line within the city limits. The streets are classified as major and minor arterials, major collectors, neighborhood collectors, and local residential streets and traffic counts are available on line (in PDF format.) 

Traffic engineering and administration of the pavement management program are provided. Staff support is also provided to the Transportation Advisory Board (TAB).

The Engineering Department staff provides technical support and manages construction projects for the Willamette Shore Trolley. (The trolley also has its own Web site.)

Pathways are another important link in the City's transportation system. Citizens and organizations may sponsor and dedicate pathway benches throughout the city.

Film Permits are also handled by staff in this division.
