Texting , parking on wrong side of street, 24/7 blind intersection, and on 90 % Intel people playing Google Games during lunch dinner shift changes ETC.

From 65th to ne Rosebay dr. heading east and west has been a driving and texting zone for 3 years now. Police need to do stake outs in coordination with Intel shift changes and lunches. Now that the law has more teeth this is easy revenue for the city. This goes on 24 / 7. All so I have nearly been T BONED 3 times at Rosebay & Ashberry intersection, IT NEEDS STOP SIGNS!! And the city needs to enforce speed limits as well as the law of visibility by directing Orenco Master HOA to clear the eye sight visibility issue that exists here. Especcially heading west to east you cannot see to your left because of the burm and vegetation. Thank You

When this light is red, it is very long. When I am commuting in the morning, I can wait for up to three minutes for a green to turn right; this gets very frustrating when there are not any cars coming in either direction on TV hwy. Is there any way to get the light timed differently to better accommodate vehicles trying to exit Arbor Roses at certain times of the day?? A shorter wait time when there is no cross traffic would be awesome!
-
A North Hillsboro bus line would be cool. Maybe between Bethany Village/PCC Rock Creek to Downtown Hillsboro via West Union or Jacobson/Brookwood/Evergreen/Jackson School.

Intel traffic using our neighborhood streets to go and from in order to avoid traffic lights at Butler and Century. Any day you can witness their tendency to ignore stopping at the few stop signs along this route. Very disappointing how the City and Intel have ignored this problem, now that they got the approvals they sought for the roundabout and parking garages. Not very neighborly of you, Intel. This is not what you promised.

General country road comment-(have specifically seen here recently)--need some shoulder room-and/or bike lanes.
Lots of biking out here and crazy as they are in the road! Frightening-horrible accident waiting to happen if a car approaches in a blind area-or goes around them and a car approaches at the same time!! -
Or a roundabout (always preferred when possible instead of another light slowing traffic).
-
Several comments recommending a light at this intersection:
I would add to this-if possible a roundabout is better-as doesn't slow traffic as much.
Also whenever possible around the city when making intersection improvements use this when possible, they are very helpful in the areas they are already. -
Heavy traffic flow during school start/end times. Due to lack of parking at the school the street is lined with parked cars at these times making it hard to see oncoming cars while crossing.

JONES FARM Intel campus lacks public transportation, coming from anywhere that is not on bus 46 route.
Current options are :
Cornell & 25th + 20 min walk to campus
MAX Fair Complex stop + 30 min walk to campusIt is a major complex, should have options that connect to Cornell and the closest MAX station.
[Employees do have a shuttle. It is for employees only, and during morning and evening hours only.]

Detection loop needs to be tuned for bicycles. When EB on Lincoln crossing 1st the signal never changes requiring you to cross on a "dead red" or wait until a vehicle come the same way. A year or two back it seemed to be able to detect bicycles, but no longer.
-
4-way stop needed at this busy intersection with limited sight lines due to parked cars. Also speed on Orenco Station Parkway should be 20 mph to make crossing the street safe.
-
Needs bike lane or paved shoulder for cyclists.
-
All of West Union should be expanded to at least have a paved shoulder (if not a bike lane). Its popular for cyclists and a great east-west route.
-
This ever-growing pothole in the westbound bike lane (north side of road) at the MAX tracks needs a real repair. It is very dangerous as it forces riders to either go toward/into the traffic lane or chance crossing the tracks at a bad angle for crashing.
-
Bikes need to take the lane on the downtown one-way streets since there is no bike lane and cars parked on both sides. Can these become "Sharrow" streets so cars know they are supposed to share the road?
-
Can this be a four-way stop? Drivers are often believe it is a four-way stop already and there have been some nasty accidents or near-misses. Plus, this is used by lots of families and children for crossing.
-
Drivers often do not observe the speed limit going down Lincoln and are driving very fast. This is dangerous for pedestrians who are crossing to access services and events downtown.
-
Can this be a four-way stop? Visibility to the north is blocked by a hedge. People speed through here. Lots of pedestrians.
-
This intersection is incredibly dangerous for pedestrians and traffic. Drivers coming down 5th street often believe that the cars on Lincoln Street have a stop sign. They don't. I've witnessed many near accidents here. Also, not a fun place to cross the street on foot.
-
Very busy commute spot between Quatama Max and Evergreen on 206th and Wilkins. Bike lane on northbound 206th suddenly ends 100+ yards from Wilkins, forcing bikes and cars into the same lane.
-
Bollards protecting the bike lane would be nice here. Cars turn this into a right turn lane 6 cars deep.
-
There should be a bike lane down this stretch to connect up TV Hwy through Cornell.
-
Cars cannot see around this corner, and cyclists going down TV highway cannot see if there are cars just waiting to jump out and slam into them.
