Managing Improvement-Induced Growth Interchange Area Policies in Oregon and Clark County, Washington

Major transportation investments like interchanges often result in growth pressures without careful planning. The State of Oregon and Clark County Washington are trying to address this issue. In Oregon, Interchange Area Management Plans are required before funding for new or improved interchanges is approved. These plans seek to manage access and land use in the interchange area through state and local actions. In Clark County, Washington, the development code requires plan amendments to replace the planned capacity consumed by subsequent development proposals – a “no net loss” of interchange capacity.
