OR 126W FLORENCE-EUGENE HIGHWAY CONDITIONS REPORT - 2001 <br />Today, with many more users and few significant upgrades since its <br />initial consturction, 126W has become congested at its more urban <br />eastern end. In rural areas, increased truck and other traffic also <br />consumes available capacity at many locations. Auto-oriented <br />development near the east end of the corridor often impacts access <br />and intersection operations and, at times, the highway's mainline <br />operations. Commute trips between Veneta and Eugene have grown <br />significantly and utilize much of the capacity between those two citys. <br />In some short stretches, 126W also serves as an alternate local street <br />for a high percentages of local trips, rather than the long-distance trips <br />for which it is primarily intended. <br />9 O gg 1W69105 <br />101 5 <br />36) 229 Elmira <br />Mapleton 126 <br />~ ~ Veneta <br />1126 Eugene <br />~ Florence Florence -Eugene Hwy.
