LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Execut ive Sum m ary
The Lane County Capital Improvement Program (CIP) is a five-year planning document
containing potential roadway related projects that will be publicly bid for construction during the
five-year planning period. It is prepared in consideration of the County’s financial projections,
external funding opportunities, road maintenance needs, and public input. The CIP for fiscal
years 2016/2017 through 2020/2021 was reviewed and discussed at Roads Advisory
Committee (RAC) meetings held in Eugene in January 2016 and a public hearing held in
February 2016. The Board of County Commissioners adopted the document after a second
public hearing in May 2016. This publication becomes effective fiscal year 2016/2017,
beginning on July 1, 2016.
The CIP is the Public Works Department’s Road Fund expense plan for the next five years.
The expenses in this CIP are consistent with the department’s Road Fund financial plan
(FinPlan). Lane County anticipates spending about $15.0 million Road Fund dollars for capital
improvement projects under the program. The majority of these dollars ($13.98 million) are
allocated towards pavement preservation needs during this update cycle. A portion of these
pavement preservation funds have been leveraged in cooperation with agency partners to
provide local matches required to secure external funding for pavement preservation and
rehabilitation work. These leveraged funds are expected to bring in an additional $2.018
million in funding. Primarily externally funded with STP-U funds, these pavement preservation
and rehabilitation projects will be designed, bid, and constructed by Lane County.
In past years projects funded with STP-U dollars were typically designed and constructed by
Lane County, but bid by the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT). Moving forward
Lane County is working to become a Certified Local Agency and will bid these projects. Local
Agency Certification will improve Lane County’s ability to compete for grant monies and
improve efficiency in project delivery.
The remaining Road Fund allocations focus heavily on preservation, with $500,000 allocated
to Bridge Rehabilitation and Preservation, and another $500,000 allocated to Covered Bridge
Preservation. This is a reduction from previous CIP levels which allocated $1,375,000 to each
of these categories. The remaining $20,540 out of $15 million Road Fund dollars is allocated
to Safety Improvements in FY16/17. Because of the lack of Road Fund resources, future
allocations of Road Fund dollars to Safety Improvements beyond FY 16/17 are zero. The
above allocations are primarily utilized for local matches required to help secure external
funds. The local match monies allocated to prioritized projects in this CIP are expected to
bring in additional external funding for County roadway improvements in the next five years.
Lane County has applied for Local Bridge Program funding through ODOT’s 18-21 STIP
program. Two bridge projects have been selected for scoping on ODOT’s 18-21 STIP Local
Bridge 150% list. These projects include Battle Creek Road: Coyote Covered Bridge
(39C409), and Kitson Springs Road: Salt Creek Bridge (39C627). If funded these projects
could potentially bring in an additional $3.791 million in external funds to help fund these
important projects.
5
LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Utilizing safety prioritized funds, another $159,460 in external funds has been secured from the
15-18 Surface Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) for safety improvements on the
Bob Straub Parkway: Mt. Vernon Road Intersection Improvements project. Similar to the
preservation and rehabilitation projects mentioned above, the project will be designed, bid, and
constructed by Lane County as the County moves forward with Local Agency Certification.
Lane County continues to seek Federal Lands Access Program (FLAP) grant funding. While
not shown as a Capital Improvement Program project at this time, Lane County was successful
in obtaining FLAP funding to study the Kitson Springs Road slide area with the goal of
producing 30% design alternatives. This work will put this project in a good position to receive
future grant funding to address the ongoing slide issues and improve this important link to
National Forest lands.
Also while not shown as a Capital Improvement Program project at this time, Lane County has
received $174,325 in STP-U grant funding to study the Beaver / Hunsaker / Wilkes corridor.
This work will evaluate design alternatives and move this project closer to funding for
improvements.
This CIP publication provides project information sheets describing project scope, cost, and
proposed solutions for each of the projects included in the CIP. In addition to listing funded
projects, this CIP update continues to maintain a list of unfunded projects for development.
I nt roduct ion
Primary obligations of Lane County are to ensure personal safety, security of property, and
preservation of infrastructure. The Lane County Public Works Department is tasked with
protecting public assets, namely roads and bridges, by maintaining, replacing, or upgrading
infrastructure in the transportation system. Maintenance and repair of the road and bridge
system includes surface and shoulder maintenance, drainage work, vegetation management,
guardrail repair, signing, striping, pavement marking, and signal maintenance.
The County road system also needs major improvements beyond regular maintenance and
repair. Major improvements to the road system such as adding new road sections, widening
existing roadways, providing bike lanes and sidewalks constitute capital improvements.
Typically, general construction, bridge structures, safety improvements, and pavement
overlays, involve a significant amount of Road Fund expenses.
As the custodian of a large inventory of public infrastructure, the County undertakes public
improvement projects each year that are of public interest. When additional funding is
available, the County allocates available resources to upgrade its existing infrastructure
through the Public Works Department’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Lane Manual
Chapter 15 specifies how capital improvements shall be carried out. It mandates that major
improvements to the County road system be scheduled through the CIP with public
involvement and prioritization processes.

LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
The CIP is the planning document that describes the County’s five-year transportation related
capital improvement program. As per Lane Manual, the program is periodically updated to
allocate limited financial resources to projects providing the greatest return for moving people
and goods safely and efficiently throughout the County. The five-year program is reviewed
and adopted by the Board of County Commissioners. It identifies candidate projects, their
funding, and schedules project executions. The plan helps provide for the most efficient
scheduling and allocation of staff and other resources.
The capital improvement and maintenance projects that are planned in the CIP are executed
through the Engineering and Construction Services (ECS) and Road Maintenance divisions of
the Public Works Department. The Transportation Planning Section within the ECS Division is
responsible for processing the CIP and publication of this document.
The purpose of this publication is to disseminate information to Lane County citizens about
construction projects affecting communities. This is in conformance with Oregon Revised
Statues (ORS) 279C.305 Least-cost Policy for Public Improvements; cost estimates in budget
process; use of agency force; and record of costs. ORS 279C.305 requires a local agency
adopt its capital improvement program 30 days prior to budget adoption. The Lane County
Capital Improvement Program is adopted in April or May by the Board of County
Commissioners.
Infrastructure Conditions
The County currently maintains about 1436 miles of road and 415 bridges that are open to
traffic. Collector and arterial roads comprise about 54% of the County road network. They
carry more vehicular traffic and freight than do local roads, so they require frequent
maintenance.
The road inventory tables below shows about 187 miles of the County’s roadways are urban
roads and about 44 miles of roadways are inside city limits. Urban collectors and arterial roads
carry higher daily traffic volume. Since they carry higher traffic volumes, past CIPs have
prioritized and completed several urban improvement projects.
In addition, County roads provide connectivity to national forests within Lane County. The
Oregon Forest Highway Inventory maintained by the Western Federal Lands Highway Division
has adopted about 182 miles of County roads as “forest highways.” They carry logging trucks
and are susceptible to rapid pavement deterioration if not prioritized and maintained
periodically.

County roads pavement qualities are inventoried separately under the Pavement Management
Program (PMP). Pavement sections are visually inspected for cracks, ruts, and any
deformations. The pavement management software converts these visual qualities into an
index on a scale of 0 to 100. The Pavement Condition Index (PCI), in most cases, is the basis
for pavement maintenance priorities.

Likewise, all 415 County owned bridges are inspected periodically under the state’s bridge
inspection program, which uses the National Bridge Inventory System (NBIS). The NBIS
informs local agencies about bridges that need attention. The overall physical condition of a
bridge is expressed in terms of a “sufficiency rating” on a scale of 0 to 100. A sufficiency rating
of 50 or less is considered poor. Poorly rated bridges are candidates for bridge replacement or
rehabilitation, and are weight limited or closed. Bridge replacement prioritization is based on
bridge inspection reports. Fair rated bridges are provided with regular maintenance with minor
repairs. The pie chart above shows the status of Lane County bridges as of December 2015.
About 4% of the bridges are candidates for replacement.
The CIP funds the major contracted maintenance and preservation projects for the large
inventory of roads and bridges in the Lane County transportation system. The preservation
and rehabilitation fund category is used to preserve and maintain the existing infrastructure.
♦
As of April 2016

LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
The general construction and structures categories address upgrade needs of the
transportation system.
Thanks to past federal funding, the County was able to keep the roads and bridges in good
shape. Past CIPs, when funding sources were robust, completed several bridge replacements
or urban improvement projects. However, today federal funding is uncertain or absent in future
years so urban improvements are receiving no focus in the County CIP. While there is the
large inventory of road and bridges to maintain, the County’s funding sources have severely
diminished and bridge conditions have deteriorated. In 2013, there were 56 bridges listed as
having a “fair” sufficiency rating compared to 104 bridges in the most recent report. The
following section discusses the County’s fund sources.
10
LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
CI P Funding
CIP projects are funded through a variety of funds, as discussed below.
Federal Sources of Revenue
The majority of land in Lane County is forested, much of it Federal. Historically, harvesting of
timber on Federal lands has generated revenue for Lane County, and of significance to the
CIP, the Lane County Road Fund. In the early 1990s, timber harvests on Federal forest lands
and associated revenues declined significantly. In the latter years of the decade, to address
this decline, Congress enacted legislation that provided a guaranteed minimum payment in the
event actual receipts dropped below a predetermined level. This guarantee was modified and
extended under the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act of 2000
(SRS). Under the bill, the County received steady annual payments from the federal
government until 2006.
When the SRS lapsed in 2006, Congress extended the bill to 2007. In October 2008,
legislation again reauthorized the SRS bill with a modified “step down” payment plan,
distributing 90% of the 2006 payment level, followed by 90% of the prior year in each
successive year until County FY2011-12 when the final payment was $7.61 million. In 2012,
congress passed a one year reauthorization of SRS through Federal FY 2013 resulting in a
payment of $7.28 million. In October 2013 congress passed yet another extension which is
estimated to provide an SRS payment of $6.91 million in FY2013-14. Today, SRS funding is
no longer considered an ongoing funding base for the CIP.
In 2007 Douglas and Lane Counties received legislative approval to expend county road fund
monies from the United States Forest Service (USFS) for the patrolling of county roads by
county law enforcement officials (SB808). This authorization had a January 2, 2014 sunset
provision. Today, the sunset date has been removed from this legislation which allows all
Oregon counties to use Forest Service revenue for patrol and patrol support services. This
has impacted the availability of Road Fund dollars.
Responding to the diminishing SRS funding trend and transfers from the Road Fund, the
County CIP has aggressively scaled back its capital construction projects, and now
emphasizes maintenance, rehabilitation and safety projects as the highest priority.
Lane and other counties continue working with congressional representatives to find a longterm solution to the loss of SRS funding. However, at this time continued SRS funding
remains uncertain.
Table 4 shows SRS payments to the Road Fund, transfers to the sheriff’s office and net SRS
payments available to the Road Fund in the past and as projected into future years.

Federal Aid Programs
In addition to federal County payments under SRS, the County has participated in and
received federal funds through several federal aid programs created under past legislation
including the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient, Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for
Users (SAFETEA-LU) and Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21). Some of
the programs the County has historically received federal funding for include: Surface
12
LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Transportation Program-Urban (STP-U), Local Highway Bridge Program (LHBP), the National
Historic Covered Bridge Preservation (NHCBP) program, Transportation Enhancement (TE),
and the Forest Highway Program. The majority of these federal programs, such as the
NHCBP, require a non-federal dollar match, typically 10.27% of the total project cost.
In December 2015, the most recent federal Transportation Bill was signed into law. The Fixing
America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act provides five years of stable federal
transportation funding for State and local governments. The FAST Act represents the first longterm, comprehensive surface transportation policy proposal since 2005’s SAFETEA-LU that
authorizes Federal highway, highway safety, transit, and rail programs for five years from
federal fiscal years 2016 through 2020. The prior Act, MAP-21, initially provided only two years
(FFY 2013-2014) of federal transportation funding and was then followed by several
extensions until the recent passage of the FAST Act. Under the new Act, Surface
Transportation Program (STP), one of the core Federal-aid Highway Program categories, is
renamed as Surface Transportation Block Grant Program (STBGP).
The FAST Act authorizes $305 billion from both the Highway Trust Fund (HTF) and the
General Fund of the US Treasury. It provides $225 billion in HTF contract authority over five
years for the Federal-aid Highway Program, increasing funding from $41 billion in 2015 to $47
billion in 2020. The increase in funding under the FAST Act is relatively modest. While stability
will be very helpful in developing a long term capital program, it will not make a significant dent
in bridge or pavement needs on the aging County highway system or address County Road
Fund shortfalls. The infrastructure improvement needs around the United States, including
other states, counties and cities far exceeds the funding currently available. Funding programs
are becoming more competitive with often higher local match requirements making it difficult to
keep up with the ever-growing need.
Title II Funds
SRS created Title II Funds that provided resources to improve watersheds to enhance fish and
wildlife habitat, reduce the risk of catastrophic wildfires and similar projects on federal land. In
the past, the County has received a portion of such funds for fish passage projects on County
roads. Without reauthorization of SRS these funds no longer exist.
Other Federal Funds
In the past, the CIP has successfully leveraged federal grants such as the Federal HighwayRail Crossing Program Section 130 funds. The County participated in the American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009 economic stimulus package. With FAST Act, the
County will continue to explore federal funding options available for transportation projects.
State Sources of Revenue
State highway user fees consist of state motor fuel taxes, state weight-mile taxes for heavy
vehicles, motor vehicle registration fees, fines, licenses, and other miscellaneous revenues.
The fees and taxes collected are distributed to local government agencies, after debt servicing
based upon applicable ORS sections. The resulting distributions are approximately as follows:
61% state, 23% counties, and 16% to cities. The county portion is distributed to all counties
based on the ratio of registered vehicles to the statewide total. Lane County currently receives
approximately 8.61% of the statewide total distributed to counties. Oregon House Bill 2001
13
LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
passed in 2009 modified the transportation related tax and fee structure to offset the potential
loss of the federal funding to state and local agencies; however, the increase in the State
Highway Fund revenue does not begin to match the decrease in Secure Rural Schools (SRS)
revenue. In contrast to past years, when SRS revenues provided more than half of Road Fund
revenues, the State Highway Fund now constitutes the primary source of revenue to the Road
Fund.
Oregon Forest Highway Program
Lane County has significant miles of County roads that are inside national forests or connect to
a national forest highway. These County roads are designated as forest highways and are
eligible for annual forest highway fund grants. The Oregon Department of Transportation,
United States Forest Service, and the Western Federal Lands Highway Division, jointly known
as the Tri-Agency, administer annual distribution of about $20 million in forest highway funds to
participating agencies. In recent years, Lane County has been successful in securing funds for
Five Rivers Road culvert replacements and the Sweet Creek Road slide repair maintenance
projects under this program. With the implementation of MAP-21 and now the FAST Act, the
Forest Highway Program has been replaced with the Federal Lands Access Program (FLAP).
Lane County has been successful in securing funding for Row River Trail Crossings and
Schindler Landing Wayside under the new FLAP program.
Other Funding Sources
Lane County has aggressively sought grant funding, including planning funds which can be
used for project development and improve the likelihood of future project funding. Lane
County has recently partnered with other agencies, combining resources, building consensus
and leveraging opportunities to promote projects that benefit Lane County citizens. Among
these projects, Lane County partnered with ODOT and the Bureau of Land Management
(BLM) in 2014 to complete a new undercrossing at Row River Road at milepost 4 and
realignment at milepost 5.2 through the FLAP program.
CIP Trend: Looking Ahead
The CIP trend chart below illustrates funding for capital investments in the Public Works
Department. The department completed several urban improvement projects when the Road
Fund was steady and supported by the SRS revenues. As the sunset of SRS approached and
uncertainty about alternative revenue sources loomed, CIP funding has significantly dropped
from a peak of $107 million in Fiscal Years 2005-2009 to $15 million in the current 2017-2021
CIP update. This declining trend in funding level is inadequate to support even maintenance
and preservation needs. Looking ahead, the Public Works Department’s CIP funding will likely
remain at minimum levels unless SRS revenue source is renewed or a new funding source is
found to replace SRS funds.

*Per Apr 22, 2014 Board Order No. 14-04-29-08, the CIP is now reviewed on a biennial basis (previously annual).
Relat ionship wit h Ot her Planning Docum ent s
Transportation System Plan
The Lane County Transportation System Plan (TSP) fulfills a statewide planning requirement,
while providing guidance on future transportation decision making. The TSP identifies needed
multi-modal transportation improvements and policies. It also identifies the function, capacity,
and location of facilities, as well as planning-level costs for projects to serve the community
over a 20-year period. Staff consults the TSP project list for potential projects every CIP
update cycle. The TSP was most recently adopted in 2004. However, an update to the 2004
TSP is currently underway, with adoption anticipated in 2017.
The reduction of federal subsidies has made revenue forecasting an uncertain exercise.
Revenue streams are insufficient to address the backlog of maintenance and preservation
needs and the needs of future transportation investments that support the future economic,
health, and well-being of Lane County. Recognizing this context, the TSP includes the
County’s best thinking about potential funding sources, but acknowledges that adequate
funding to fully implement the needed improvements over the next 20 years is unlikely to be
available. The updated TSP is being designed to better prepare Lane County for funding
15
LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
opportunities by identifying projects that align with state and federal resource allocation
patterns, such as federal access lands, freight routes, emergency lifeline routes, systemic
corridor and hot-spot safety treatments, safe routes to schools, and multi-modal amenities.
While the TSP prioritizes planned projects, the County may choose to advance any of the
identified projects as opportunities arise. The TSP goals and policies can serve as a guide
when making these decisions. The existing policies adopted as part of the 2004 TSP that are
planned for inclusion in the 2017 TSP, related to funding, are as follows:
•
Ensure safety as a top priority in making decisions for the Capital Improvement
Program and for transportation facility operations, maintenance, and repair.
•
Realize the economic benefits walking, biking, public transportation, and other active
transportation investments can provide to Lane County.
•
Recognize the importance of resource-related uses such as agriculture and forestry
to the local economy, and the need to maintain a transportation system that provides
opportunities for the harvesting and marketing of agriculture and forest products.
•
Consider transportation improvement projects that accommodate all transportation
users by including shoulders, sidewalks, bike lanes, and bus stop turnouts,
consistent with adopted road design standards.
•
Provide a multi-modal transportation system that is accessible to all users, improves
access to basic needs (e.g., education, employment, food, housing, and medical
care) and complies with the American with Disabilities Act (ADA).
•
Support creation of regional bicycle and pedestrian corridors to facilitate safe travel
between and within urban and rural communities in Lane County.
•
Prioritize improvements within statutory road fund limitations, to access ways, paths,
or trails where trail or route improvements help complete a regional planned facility
or make connections to an existing or planned facility within an incorporated city
within the County.
•
Strive to distribute funding so that it is balanced between the various needs of the
community including modal and geographic considerations.
•
Ensure operations, maintenance, repair, and preservation of County transportation
facilities, which include roads, bridges, sidewalks, and bike facilities, are the priority
of the Road Fund and are routinely carried out to protect the public investment in,
and to ensure adequate functioning of the County transportation system.

LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Statewide Transportation Improvement Program
The Lane County Capital Improvement Program is comparable to the function of the state’s
Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). These two documents may show
identical projects when the CIP leverages ODOT or federally funded projects in the County.
Such projects must be adopted in the STIP before any grant pass-through occurs.
Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Program
The Central Lane Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) maintains the metropolitan area
Transportation Improvement Program (MTIP) for federal funds management purposes. Lane
County is a participating member of the MPO. Lane County projects of regional significance
inside the MPO boundary are listed in the MTIP. Typically Lane County CIPs have included
local matches for MTIP projects.
CI P Process
Staff Draft
The CIP process begins every other fall with staff evaluation of the previously adopted CIP
projects status. The projects in the first two fiscal year of the program in the current CIP are
reviewed for project status. Those projects that will be completed or are under construction by
fall are removed from the list. Projects in the following year are moved up for execution.
County staff evaluates the progress of projects in the latter years of the program and adjusts
the program as needed to reflect best estimates of schedules, project scope, and cost. At this
stage, staff also evaluates projects in relation to department’s budgets and makes any
recommendations for additions or deletions from the program. New projects are added if
additional funding is available through external sources. Staff also identifies a list of candidate
projects for development that brings benefits to the community that are eligible for external
grant opportunities. Benefits of the individual proposed projects are evaluated and ranked.
In past CIP cycles, staff has used a tool referred to as the Prioritization Matrix. Because
99.86% of the current Road Fund CIP resources have been allocated to Preservation and
Rehabilitation categories, the scope of work in project selection and prioritization has
diminished to the point that there is nothing to prioritize as compared to past CIPs, eliminating
the need for a Prioritization Matrix. A prioritization process will be reinstituted if and when the
Road Fund has funds available to apply toward projects in other categories. Project selection
is currently a continuation of previously adopted and prioritized projects, or addresses an
urgent safety need. This CIP refines the project costs and adjusts construction schedules.
Outside of preservation and maintenance work, or projects funded by external sources, no new
projects have been added to the CIP. A few new projects have been placed on the Projects
for Development list, either due to an impending maintenance need, a safety issue, or a
partnership with another agency.
17
LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
In consideration of the County’s financial position, staff recommended to the Roads Advisory
Committee that the current CIP focus on preservation and rehabilitation. No enhancement or
improvement projects have been proposed in this CIP, outside of those funded by grants.
Public Participation
Public participation is essential to the CIP process. Citizen input plays an important role in
project selection and the delivery process. The public can participate in the process by
providing written or oral testimony at public hearings, conducted before the Roads Advisory
Committee (RAC) and the Board of County Commissioners (Board). Public notices are
published for each public hearing. The CIP related information and documents are posted for
public
review
on
the
Lane
County
Public
Works
web
site
at
http://www.lanecounty.org/Departments/PW/TransPlanning/Pages/cip.aspx. In addition to the
public hearings, the public can participate by contacting and/or sending their written comments
to staff.
Roads Advisory Committee Action
The RAC has the important role of promoting public participation in the road related matters,
including collecting public input on staff’s draft CIP. The RAC is a committee comprised of
volunteer citizens appointed by the Lane County Board of Commissioners (Board). It is tasked
with helping the Board on transportation matters including developing the CIP. The RAC
seeks public comments on the staff proposed CIP before making a recommendation to the
Board. The RAC normally engages in the CIP review process between January and March.
Based on public input and other considerations, the RAC may ultimately give preference to
certain projects. During the process, staff provides as much information as needed about a
proposed project so that the RAC can make informed decisions. After considering information
provided by staff and input by the public, the RAC deliberates on the draft and forwards a
recommendation to the Board.
Once projects are adopted and scheduled for design, citizen input is again sought on specific
design concepts for individual projects. In this context, the RAC may elect to set a public
hearing before recommending adoption by the Board of a preferred project alternative.
Board Action
The Board reviews the recommendation forwarded by the RAC. Updates or changes
proposed by the public, staff, and the RAC are advisory to the Board. The Board has final
approval authority for the CIP and expenditure of the County Road Fund. The Board holds a
second public hearing on the draft CIP before adopting it at least 30 days prior to adopting the
County budget. The Board may change project priorities at any time; projects may be added,
deleted, or combined with new projects as situations arise.
18
LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
The Board is typically asked to adopt the CIP. Once adopted the CIP is used to meet County
budgeting requirements. The following section provides an overview of the CIP 2017-2021
approved by the Board in May 2016.
CI P Cat egories
This CIP publication is intended to provide public information regarding Public Work’s roadway
improvement projects that will be open to public bid. The adopted projects are listed on the
executive tables beginning on page 25 and are grouped in program categories as described
below.
Right-of-Way
This program category lists cost estimates for right-of-way acquisition for CIP projects.
Typically, General Construction projects involve right-of-way acquisitions. Maintenance
projects also may require construction easements or additional right of way. Cost estimates
towards such right-of-way related expenses are shown under this category. These estimates
are preliminary and subject to change based on final design of each project and individual
acquisitions. County acquisitions are based on appraisals of the land and improvements to be
acquired and any associated compensable damages.
General Construction
This program category addresses improvement needs arising from geometric standards,
pavement structure, or safety issues. Lane County has more than 40 miles of urban collector
roads primarily inside the Eugene-Springfield metropolitan area. Many of these roads do not
meet modern geometric standards. Historically, this category of improvements constituted
almost one-third of the CIP allocation. This is not the case now; no General Construction
urban improvement projects are proposed in this CIP.
Structures
Structures are generally localized projects such as bridges and retaining walls. The structures
improvement program addresses bridge rehabilitation and replacement as identified and
recommended by the National Bridge Inventory System. Non-bridge types of localized
structural improvements such as retaining walls and toe walls are also included in this
category.
Preservation/ Rehabilitation Fund
This category has three subcategories of projects to address pavement and bridges
preservation and rehabilitation needs.
The Overlays and Rehabilitation subcategory is specific to pavement preservation and
constitutes the largest component of the CIP. The allocated funds are used towards annual
pavement overlay and rehabilitation projects to respond to current pavement conditions.
Asphalt Concrete (AC) overlay or chip sealing are commonly used preservation techniques in
19
LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Lane County. Although AC overlay projects are maintenance projects, they fall under the
definition of public improvements 1 when the depth of AC is two inches or more, or when a
proposal has an estimated cost of $125,000 or more. Therefore, AC projects are included in
the CIP while Chip Seal projects are typically not included. Individual overlay projects are not
itemized in the CIP except when project specific external funding is involved.
Pavement condition information is gathered annually and reported as the Pavement Condition
Index (PCI). The PCI is the basis for prioritizing preservation and rehabilitation projects for the
existing road system. Lane County uses the computer-based Pavement Management
Program application and field inspections to prioritize annual pavement preservation projects.
The program identifies suitable treatment type and implementation timing.
The Bridge Rehabilitation and Preservation program exists to respond to the maintenance and
preservation needs of County bridges. Bridge rehabilitation projects are generally significant in
scope and in general involve large capital costs. Such projects may be placed under the
Structures category. The funds allocated in this category are primarily used for minor repair
works and for providing local matches to federal and state funds. Bridge rehabilitation
priorities are established using the bridge sufficiency rating as part of the of bridge condition
assessment through the statewide bridge inspection program. The inspection report identifies
and recommends maintenance for bridges needing repair.
The Covered Bridge Preservation subcategory dedicates a portion of the Road Fund towards
preservation of fourteen existing covered bridges in the County. In recent years, most covered
bridge preservation projects have been funded through the National Historic Covered Bridge
Program, however this program is no longer available to fund these projects. Covered bridges
must compete for outside funding sources with other bridge needs.
The SRS Preservation Projects subcategory has been added to the current CIP in order to
account for one time SRS monies received by the Lane County Road Fund in 2016 which will
be dedicated to preservation and rehabilitation needs.
Safety Improvements
Safety improvement projects are intended to address localized problems that do not require
major reconstruction. Staff recommends projects as locations are studied and identified.
Generally, these projects will have low cost, are small in scope, have limited impact on
adjacent properties, and are relatively easy to implement. These funds may be utilized as
local matches for external funding applications.
Fish Passage Projects
The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife has identified nearly 300 culverts under Lane
County roads that are believed to impede Coho or Chinook salmon passage at some stage in
their lifecycles. The establishment of this fund is intended to dedicate Road Fund resources to
replace these culverts and make them fish passable.
1
ORS 279C.305 defines resurfacing of highway, roads, or streets at depth of two or more inches and at an
estimated cost that exceed $125,000 as a public improvement.
20
LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Bike and Pedestrian Improvements
The Bike and Pedestrian Improvements category is intended to fund projects that enhance
pedestrian and bicycling opportunities. Projects in this category include installation of bike
lanes, sidewalks, striping to delineate bike lanes, or the addition of paved shoulders for bike
and pedestrian use.
Projects for Development
The Projects for Development category encompass projects that are unfunded, or have been
funded for study, but are highly ranked and prioritized. These projects are candidate CIP
projects if funds become available.
CI P 1 5 -1 9 Overview
The Road Fund allocation for CIP fiscal years 2016/2017 through 2020/2021 is about $15.00
million, which is a 16.7% reduction of $3 million or $600,000 per year from the previous five
year CIP. The table below compares the allocation of Road Fund dollars between the previous
allocation and the current allocation for each CIP category. Although the total project costs of
externally funded projects are shown, only local match portions are included in the table for the
Road Fund comparison purpose.

As in the preceding CIP, this CIP allocates a significant percentage of the Road Fund towards
Preservation and Rehabilitation. This category is broken down into four subcategories,
including Overlays and Pavement Rehabilitation, Bridge Rehabilitation and Preservation,
Covered Bridge Preservation, and the SRS Preservation Projects. The CIP allocates $2.78
million to Overlays and Pavement Rehabilitation in FY 16/17 and $2.8 million per year to
Overlays and Pavement Rehabilitation for the remaining four years. Annual $100,000 fund
allocations are made for Bridge Rehabilitation and Preservation, as well as identical annual
allocations towards Covered Bridge Preservation.
As shown above, the combined
♣
Adjusted Road Fund expenses for construction costs only.
21
LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
preservation and rehabilitation category expenses constitute about 99.86% of the total Road
Fund expenses.
Due to budget limitations in the Road Fund, there is currently no money available to fund
projects under the Right-of-Way, General Construction, Structures, Fish Passage Projects,
Bike and Pedestrian Improvements, or the Payments and Matches to Other Agencies
categories.
Lane County has successfully utilized CIP funds or “In-Kind” Engineering services to leverage
grant funding opportunities. Grant funding for this CIP cycle includes $2.018 million in Surface
Transportation Program-Urban (STP-U) funds, and $159,460 in Surface Transportation
Improvement Program (STIP) Enhance funding.
During the peak of the SRS funding, the County shared its revenue and cost of improvement
projects with other local partner agencies, including cities and state. The Payments and
Matches to Other Agencies category is intended to highlight partnership contributions when
they can be made. This CIP does not include any such payments. This CIP does include one
pavement rehabilitation project of mutual interest.
The South 2nd Street pavement
rehabilitation project includes a pedestrian connection to Willamalane Park and Recreation
District’s Dorris Ranch multi-use path trailhead. Portions of the work are under both County
and Willamalane jurisdiction. In partnership with Willamalane, match contributions are being
provided by Willamalane for Engineering as well as full construction costs for the sidewalk
connection. The executive tables reflect the Willamalane contributions to the project.
The summary tables beginning on page 25 in the next section shows detailed project listings
and estimated project costs.

(1) The Right-of-Way category lists cost estimates for right-of-way acquisition for CIP projects. Right-of-way costs are approximate and based on anticipated
property impacts that are not defined in the early stages of project development. These costs are subject to change as design concepts are refined.
(2) Due to budget limitations in the road fund, there is currently no money available to fund projects in the Right-of-Way category.
(3) The General Construction category addresses improvement needs to meet current geometric, pavement, or safety standards. Historically, this category had
constituted almost one-third of the CIP allocation, especially when County roads were being upgraded to meet current urban design standards.
(4) Due to budget limitations in the road fund, there is currently no money available to fund projects in the General Construction category.
(5) The Structures category is generally for new or major replacements of County bridges and/or retaining walls. This category deals with major bridge rehabilitation
and replacement as identified and recommended by the National Bridge Inventory System. Seismic deficiencies would also be funded out of this category.
(6) Due to budget limitations in the road fund, there is currently no money available to fund projects in the Structures category.

(7) The overall Preservation / Rehabilitation Funds category has four subcategories that address preservation and rehabilitation needs: Overlays and Pavement
Rehabilitation, Bridge Rehabilitation and Preservation, Covered Bridge Preservation, and SRS Preservation Projects.
(8) The Overlay and Pavement Rehabilitation subcategory funds annual pavement overlay and rehabilitation projects responding to managed pavement conditions.
(9) The estimated cost of the South 2nd Street Pavement Preservation is $742,420. Funding includes STP-U funds in the amount of $607,262 and a Lane County match
of $67,386. A portion of the project includes a pedestrian connection to Willamalane Park and Recreation District's Dorris Ranch Multi-use Path Trailhead. STP-U funds
received included "Engineering Only" for the sidewalk connection. The Willamalane portion of the match for Engineering funding is $2118. Willamalane construction
funding is estimated at $65,654.
(10) The estimated cost of the Prairie Rd and E. Enid Rd Pavement Preservation and Sidewalk Rehabilitation Project is $1,496,412. Funding includes STP-U funds in the
amount of $1,342,730 and a Lane County match of $153,682.
(11) The PMP identifies individual roads needing preservation treatment; treatment types and timing are based on current pavement conditions. This line item shows
funds available for pavement preservation after project specific local matches are set aside. The Public Works FinPlan assumes $2.8 million per year for pavement
preservation. Note that in FY 16-17 the 2.8 million has been reduced by $20,540, to cover an otherwise unfunded $20,540 match for Bob Straub Parkway: Mt. Vernon
Intersection Improvements project. Note that in FY 17-18 the $2.8 million has been reduced by $67,386 which is the Lane County portion of matching funds for the
South 2nd Street project. In FY 18-19 the $2.8 million has been reduced by $153,682 which is the matching fund amount for the Prairie Rd and E. Enid Rd project.

PROJECT NOTES AND MAP KEY NUMBERS
(1) Prairie Road and E Enid Road: The project scope includes providing pavement preservation to a section
of Prairie Road and all of E Enid Road. A part of the Prairie Road portion of the project will also include
replacement of a deteriorating asphalt concrete walk with a new concrete sidewalk along the west side of
the roadway, providing needed connectivity between existing sidewalks north of Carol Ave. and at Irving Rd.
to the south.. This project is approved for federal STP-U funding.
nd
(2) South 2 Street: The project scope includes pavement preservation and structural improvements to the
nd
Lane County portion of South 2 Street between the beginning of Lane County maintenance and Dorris
Ranch Park. The project will also include repair of an embankment failure area, replacement of damaged
sidewalks, upgraded and improved bicycle pavement markings, as well as a pedestrian connection between
nd
the south end of South 2 Street and the Middle Fork Path within Willamalane’s Dorris Ranch Park. The
Willamalane Parks and Recreation District will contribute to the project and Lane County will act as the lead
agency providing design and construction services to the project. A green bike lane will be added at the
nd
intersection of Harbor Drive and South 2 Street, improving safe access to the park. This project is
approved for federal STP-U funding.
(3) Bob Straub Parkway: The intersection at Mount Vernon Road is proposed for a pedestrian crossing. The
project scope includes the construction of a Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon System. It is anticipated that this
project will be funded with 15-18 STIP Enhance funding.
(4) Northwest Expressway: The project scope includes pavement preservation between the Chambers
Connector and Irvington Drive. The City of Eugene will participate in the project, providing funding for the
portion within the City’s jurisdiction.
(5) Marcola School Zone Safety: This project is intended to improve pedestrian safety for students crossing
Marcola Road within the school zone in the community of Marcola. Marcola Elementary School is being
replaced with a new building adjacent to the existing Marcola High School on Wendling Road. A safety
issue has existed for high school students crossing Marcola Road in route to the High School on Wendling
Road. The addition of elementary school students heightens the severity of the problem with more
vulnerable users. The project will include installation of school zone flashers and upgraded pavement
markings better warning roadway users that they are entering a school zone which should help in the
reduction of traffic speeds when children are present.

Define the Problem
In a predominately industrial area, these roads are showing significant signs of distress. The
heavy truck traffic in this area has the potential to significantly accelerate this deterioration.
The 2003 overlay of E Enid Rd is already cracking, among other signs of distress and this
section of Prairie Road is also cracking, which could lead to premature failure. The existing
asphalt walkway does not provide a complete and long-term connection to existing sidewalks
providing safe and convenient active transportation options to local residents.
Proposed Solution
Prairie Rd, MP 1.09 to1.59: 2” mill & fill in the travel lanes, followed by a 1½” overlay;
replacing the asphalt walk with concrete and bringing up the intersections to ADA standards.
Prairie Rd, MP 1.59 to 2.03: 3½” mill and fill in the travel lanes, followed by a 2” overlay of
the entire surface.
E Enid Rd: 2 ½” overlay.

LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Define the Problem
S. 2nd Street has significant signs of distress; pavement preservation will serve to avoid more
costly repairs in the future. Several sidewalk sections are in need of repair. The current bike
lane terminates abruptly at the intersection before the park entrance, with a right-turn conflict
between modes, and would be improved with pavement markings. There is not a good
connection presently between the Middle Fork Path and S 2nd Street.
Proposed Solution
The pavement travel lanes will be milled & filled, and upon completion the entire road surface
will be upgraded with an asphalt overlay. The work will also include stabilization repairs,
replacement of damaged sidewalks, and new pavement markings. A green bike lane will be
added at the intersection of Harbor Drive and S. 2nd Street to improve safety and provide
better bicycle access into the park. The project includes a new sidewalk connection between
S. 2nd Street and the Middle Fork Path within Dorris Ranch Park. Bike and pedestrian
markings will be replaced to improve visibility and safety throughout the project. The
improvements will benefit all travel modes.

LANE COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Define the Problem
The City of Springfield forecasts the intersection of Bob Straub Parkway (BSP) and Mt.
Vernon Road will have a high level of pedestrian traffic when the Jasper-Natron area is fully
developed. BSP is a high-speed facility (55 mph), and crossing the 76-foot wide facility is
intimidating and unsafe for pedestrians. As traffic on the facility increases over the years,
pedestrian crossing will be more challenging.
Proposed Solution
The City explored 17 different mitigation options to address the pedestrian safety issue. The
Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon system a is recommended as a solution for this area. The system
assembly would display red indicator followed by flashing red beacon, when a user wishing to
cross BSP initiates the beacon display. The system is bike friendly.

The City of Springfield will provide $20,000 in match funds as part of the required 10.27% match for the STIP
Enhance funding.
c
Lane County will provide a Road Fund allocation of $20,540 to meet the balance of the required 10.27%
match and to provide an overmatch of $20,000. The overmatch amount has made the project more competitive
and has helped in securing the likely funding for this project.

Define the Problem
The County portion of the Northwest Expressway was last resurfaced with an open graded
hot mix asphalt concrete pavement. Despite a fog seal in 2013, the road continues to
deteriorate and is in need of a surface preservation as raveling and cracking continue to
accelerate. Between the Chambers Connector and Irvington Drive, there are two City of
Eugene sections which total 0.934 miles. The city sections are in very poor condition, as they
have received less maintenance than the county sections. The project scope includes
pavement preservation between the Chambers Connector and Irvington Drive, including both
city and county sections of roadway. The City of Eugene will participate in the project,
providing funding for the portion within the City’s jurisdiction.
Proposed Solution
Design alternatives are being reviewed to achieve a 20 year design life and stay within the
project budget. Because the SRS monies were only recently allocated to the CIP, a cost has
not yet been determined for the City of Eugene portion of the project. The tables below
include only estimated Lane County project costs. City of Eugene costs will be determined
and reimbursed by the city as the project progresses.

Define the Problem
Marcola Elementary School is being replaced with a new building adjacent to the existing
Marcola High School on Wendling Road. A safety issue has existed for high school students
crossing Marcola Road in route to the High School on Wendling Road. The addition of
elementary school students heightens the severity of the problem with more vulnerable users.
Proposed Solution
This project is intended to improve pedestrian safety for students crossing Marcola Road
within the school zone in the community of Marcola. The project will include installation of
school zone flashers and upgraded pavement markings better warning roadway users that
they are entering a school zone which should help in the reduction of traffic speeds when
children are present and provide for safer crossing of Marcola Road.
