Oregon Route 212 marker

Oregon Route 212 is an Oregon state highway that serves the eastern Portland metro area. It is an east–west route, running between Boring and Clackamas.

OR 212 begins east of Boring and northwest of Sandy at an interchange with U.S. Route 26. OR 212 heads west, through the small town of Boring, and through the small city of Damascus. On the route between these two towns are numerous intersections with backroads that lead to Gresham, Portland's biggest eastern suburb. The sides of this route are covered in farms and berry fields. This section of OR 212 is the Clackamas-Boring Highway No. 174 (see Oregon highways and routes).

After Damascus, the highway intersects with OR 224, just east of Clackamas. It quickly becomes four lanes (two in each direction) as it speeds past warehouses in the Portland suburb, marked as both OR 212 and OR 224. After several miles, which are heavily traveled by trucks, the highway comes to its western terminus, at an intersection with Interstate 205 and OR 213. This section of OR 212 is part of the Clackamas Highway No. 171.
