Road construction to improve safety on Stafford Road is underway. Stafford Road will be closed to thru traffic between Johnson Road and Childs Road through September 30, 2025.
This is a Clackamas County Road Improvement Project. This project involves adding a roundabout at Childs Road, realigning Johnson Road to eliminate intersection skew and reduce steep slopes, adding a southbound left-turn lane at Johnson Road, widening Stafford Road between Pattulo Way and Rosemont Road to add bike lanes, and replacing the Pecan Creek culvert at Childs Road with a larger, fish-passable culvert.
Construction is expected to continue on this project through September 2026.
