Go Oregon! projects at the Oregon Department of Transportation are wrapping up around the state. From new fences to new roofs, from making bathrooms ADA compliant to replacing broken windows with energy efficient ones, state-owned facilities around the state are getting much-needed improvements in this program. Approved by Governor Kulongoski and the 2009 Oregon Legislature, the $175 million Go Oregon! program has sent work to hundreds of businesses and kept thousands of Oregonians working.
ODOT's progress as of September 24, 2009:
- Ninety-one (91) projects are now complete.
- For projects complete or partially complete, ODOT has paid out $2,648,297.
- One project is being re-bid; three were cancelled because deterioriation was greater than expected.
- Two projects that were put on hold are now moving ahead with scoping.
- Sixty (60) contracts valued at $1,045,813 have been awarded to emerging small, women-owned, minority-owned, and disadvantaged businesses.
Projects for the Oregon Department of Transportation accounted for several million in Go Oregon! funding. These projects included a variety of facilities construction and maintenance work on ODOT property statewide including:
- Portland Metro Region - 8 projects
- Willamette Valley and Oregon Coast - 24 projects
- Southern Oregon - 25 projects
- Central Oregon - 17 projects
- Eastern Oregon - 27 projects
