e Ms. Schue was concerned about the effect on the South Willamette community of a change to two-way traffic on Willamette Street from 11th to 20th avenues., She wondered when it will be discussed. Mr. Reinhard said the Downtown Commission and Planning Commission will probably forward recommendations about the change in April. Then the council will hold a public hearing on it. Ms. Brody said the study of a conversion of Wi11amette Street to two-way traffic is included in the Downtown Plan. Such policy direction results in projects being included in TransP1an, but studies may indicate that the projects should not be implemented. Major intersection improvements at 18th and Wi11amette need to be studied. e Mr. Hansen moved, seconded by Ms. Ehrman, to approve (1) the addition of the widening of Roosevelt Boulevard from Terry to Greenhill streets to the medium-range phase, (2) a change in the cost estimate for Project #134 (Wi11amette Street conversion to two-way from 11th to 20th avenues) in the short-range phase, (3) the inclusion of the 18th and Wi11amette intersection and a change in the cost estimate in Project #214 in the medium-range phase, and (4) the addition of a third southbound lane at the merge of the Valley River ramp and 1-105 to the short-range phase. Roll call vote; the motion carried unanimously 8:0. B.
