History
The Swift Highway No. 120 was established as a secondary highway by the Oregon State Highway Commission on December 3, 1931. On November 22, 1966, a section of the Swift Highway between North Columbia Boulevard and an Oregon–Washington Railroad and Navigation Company railroad crossing was truncated.[8] During the Oregon Transportation Commission meeting on July 24, 2002, the commission approved the OR 120 designation to be placed on the Swift Highway.[9] On July 22, 2008, maintenance for portions of the highway were transferred from ODOT to the city of Portland. The sections that were transferred are from the highway's western terminus to the southwestern end of the Columbia Slough bridge, and the northeastern end of the Columbia Slough Bridge to the end of concrete pavement near the Portland Expo Center.[3][8]
