The project will move the north leg of Northeast Delfel Road to the west to align with the south leg of Northeast Delfel Road and replace the existing traffic signal with a multi-lane roundabout
VANCOUVER – Public Works is planning to reconfigure the intersection of Northeast Delfel Road and Northeast 179th Street. The project will move the north leg of Northeast Delfel Road to the west to align with the south leg of Northeast Delfel Road and replace the existing traffic signal with a multi-lane roundabout. The project includes:
- Constructing a roundabout at Northeast Delfel Road and Northeast 179th Street to replace the existing signal-controlled intersection
- Reconfiguring the north and south sections of Northeast Delfel Road to connect with the existing roadway
- Constructing a soundwall around the RV park at the gas station to mitigate noise impacts
- Creating a public access road from the realigned Northeast Delfel Road to the gas station and RV park
- Improving drainage for surface runoff in the area and directing it to a stormwater treatment facility
Construction is currently scheduled to begin in 2029.
Residents can learn more about the project at an upcoming information session, 6 – 8 p.m. on Thursday, April 10. Staff will share a presentation about the project from 6:30 – 7 p.m. with a Q&A (question-and-answer) session immediately following.
Residents can attend in person at Clark County Sheriff West Precinct, 505 NW 179th St in Ridgefield. Attendees can view project information and meet with staff before and after the presentation. Refreshments will be provided.
The presentation and Q&A session will also be streamed live online via Webex. Online attendees can ask questions during the Q&A using the chat feature. Residents can register to receive an email link to join the meeting. A meeting link will be posted to the webpage before the presentation. Registration and online meeting information can be found on the project webpage.
