Shepherd Road is a two-lane collector between Washougal River Road and NE 3rd Avenue. Mid way along this stretch between N 12th St and N 4th Ct is a waterfront park called Sandy Swimming Hole. Access to the park can only be attained off Shepherd Road and the existing park has only a few spaces to accommodate residents. There are no existing sidewalk or bike connections to the park and visitors often illegally park off within the roadway and the surrounding neighborhoods.

Project Description
The City plans to widen Shepherd Road to the north allowing for on-street parking, new bicycle lanes, and new sidewalk connections. The City also plans to incorporate traffic calming due to the speeds and install a raised crosswalk so pedestrians can access the park while reducing vehicle speed along the corridor.
