Washington-Monroe Street Greenway

Monroe Street

The Washington-Monroe Street Greenway will run from the Trolley Trail at Milwaukie Bay Park through downtown Milwaukie and all the way to the multi-use paths constructed along Linwood Ave. Check out the September 2024 Washington-Monroe Greenway Project Factsheet. Separately, Clackamas County will extend the Linwood multi-use paths to the Springwater Corridor and is undertaking design and construction of the greenway from Linwood Ave. to Fuller Rd. (construction in 2024-26). You can learn more about the Clackamas County extension here.
