Neighborhood Transportation Safety Program (NTSP)

Making transportation safer in Tualatin

What is the Neighborhood Transportation Safety Program?

The Neighborhood Transportation Safety Program aims to make transportation safer in Tualatin by implementing improvements suggested by the community. Projects could range from better signs, crosswalks, ADA-compliant curb ramps, enhanced bike lanes to fixing problematic areas on roads and pathways. 

This community-driven initiative aims to make local roads and pathways safer and more accessible for everyone.  Do you have a transportation project in mind? Let us know! We look forward to your suggestions!
