Community members are invited to participate in the second open house for the Aune Safety and Connectivity Project. This informational open house will be held online only and will be open for three weeks, from now to May 4, 2026, for public input.

The online open house can be accessed at bendoregon.gov/aune.

The open house includes a summary of what we heard from the community during fall 2025 outreach and presents proposed designs for several streets and intersections in the southern end of Bendโ€™s Core Area. These locations include Aune Street, Scott Street, Second Street, Miller Street and Third Street up to the Burnside Avenue intersection.   

These proposed improvements aim to make driving safer and walking and biking more comfortable, while strengthening connections between the Old Mill District and East Bend.  

This project is funded through the voter-approved 2020 Transportation GO Bond, Capital Improvement Program funding and a grant through the Oregon Department of Transportation ARTS (All Roads Transportation Safety) program.

Learn more about the project and sign up for project updates at bendoregon.gov/aune.
