Oregon Route 569 is an Oregon state highway serving as an outer quarter-loop in Eugene and Springfield. OR 569 comprises part of the Beltline Highway No. 69 (see Oregon highways and routes). It is 11.2 miles (18.0 km) long and runs east–west. OR 569 is not a complete beltway, though it was originally proposed as such before freeway revolts resulted in the original plan being scrapped.[citation needed]
In March 2010, the Oregon Transportation Commission voted to rename the highway from Beltline to Randy Papé Beltway.[2] This name change met much opposition. (See History below.) By April, it was finalized as the Randy Papé Beltline.[3]
