What started as a community discussion about “intersection improvements” more than two years ago is now a wrap. The road work at Camas’ Lake Road and Everett Street intersection is now complete, and the community has a fully functioning traffic roundabout connecting its north and south shores.

“From the start, the primary goal was to improve safety and efficiency for all users and modes of travel. The previous intersection was causing significant delays in all directions, and pedestrians and cyclists had limited options for crossing,” said Camas Project Manager Jim Hodges. “We now have an intersection free from frustrating traffic backups that offers safe crossing options, beautiful landscaping, and access to local homes, businesses and recreation.”
