Oregon opens ethics probe into ex-transportation commissioner

The Oregon Government Ethics Commission opened an investigation Nov. 13 into former Oregon Transportation Commissioner Alicia Chapman to determine if she violated state ethics law by voting to advance an Oregon Department of Transportation project her company later worked on. The Rose Quarter Improvement Project is intended to widen I-5 with the goal of improving congestion where interstates 5, 84 and 405 converge and reconnect Portland's historically Black Albina neighborhood with a highway cover. It's expected to cost billions and lacks funding for the full project. The five-person commission serves as a governing body for ODOT, approving budgeting decisions, projects and more. Chapman and other commissioners voted in July 2025 to advance Phase 1A of the project, which her steel fabricating company, Willamette Technical Fabricators, where she is CEO and owner, was later contracted as a supplier. The cost of the work performed by Willamette Technical Fabricators was not immediately clear.

Work on that phase led to weeks of road closures on I-5 this fall. An OGEC investigator found there was a substantial objective basis
