Building Safer Streets Together: Join Us for the Transportation Safety Open House on April 3
The
City of Corvallis and Benton County are working together to improve transportation safety in our community. Through the federally funded Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) Program, both the City and the County are creating Transportation Safety Action Plans
(TSAP), using data to identify where crashes happen, understand their causes, and develop community-driven safety solutions. We are interested in your input to help create an effective and inclusive plan.
Join Us at the Open House
We invite you to attend our upcoming joint open house on Thursday, April 3, from 5-7 p.m. at the Corvallis-Benton County Public Library. This is your chance to learn more about the projects, explore crash data, and share your thoughts on how we can make our streets safer for everyone. The event will feature interactive stations where you can pinpoint safety concerns, suggest improvements, and discuss the challenges you face as a road user. Whether you use transit, walk, bike, drive, or roll, your voice matters in shaping the future of transportation safety in Corvallis and Benton County. Light refreshments and family-friendly activities will be provided, and bilingual staff will be available to support Spanish-speaking attendees.
Share Your Safety Concerns Online
Can’t make it to the open house? You can still contribute to the project by sharing your transportation safety concerns through our safety comment map at https://publicproject.net/map/benton-county-corvallis-tsap. This interactive tool allows you to flag locations around Corvallis and Benton County where you feel unsafe or suggest improvements. Your feedback will be combined with collision data to pinpoint potential problem areas, inform safety improvements, and help shape our plans.
Planning Today for a Safer Tomorrow
This is the first step in a long-term process to make Corvallis' and Benton County’s roads safer for everyone. These plans will identify community needs and prioritize key projects operational strategies that can be funded and implemented over time. By aligning with the SS4A program and regional and statewide safety goals, both jurisdictions will be eligible for future funding to support these critical improvements. These TSAPs are more than just a plan, however—they represent a shared commitment between the City and the County to creating a safer, more inclusive transportation system for everyone.
