US97: S. Parkway/Murphy Interchange Area Management Plan
The U.S. 97: S. Parkway/Murphy Interchange Area Management Plan (IAMP) is a follow-up planning effort based on the South Parkway Refinement Plan. The South Parkway Refinement Plan recommended locations and conceptual designs for interchanges at Powers Road and at Murphy Crossing. The IAMP includes only the proposed South Bend Parkway/Murphy Interchange and does not include modifications to the Powers Road Interchange.
The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT), in collaboration with Deschutes County, the Bend Metropolitan Planning Organization, the City of Bend, and stakeholders has initiated the S. Parkway/Murphy IAMP to identify transportation improvements and management strategies in the Interchange Area.
The BMPO Policy Board is serving as the Steering Committee for the IAMP and will provide overall guidance for the refinement plan. It is anticipated that updates to and action by the Steering Committee will occur at the regularly scheduled monthly meetings of the Policy Board. Those meetings are typically held on the third Thursday of each month at 4:00 p.m. in the DeArmond Room at the Deschutes Services Center (1300 NW Wall Street, Bend).
