Getting Around the Region
The City and County street system lacks options for people to walk, bike and drive between downtown La Pine and Wickiup Junction other than along U.S. 97 or Huntington Road. Both are considered high-stress for walking and biking. Here’s what could help:
- Path and trail connections to regional trails planned by ODOT and the City of La Pine to the north and south.
- Additional north-south and east-west streets on both sides of the highway: A new north-south collector street between U.S. 97 and Huntington Road; A new east-east collector street between Burgess Road and First Street; Darlene Way improvements; and Realigning Burgess Road south for increased spacing from the rail crossing.
- Possibly removing passing lanes between Wickiup Junction and downtown La Pine.
