West Gibson Road, Gibson Road, and East Gibson Road together form the biggest east-west thoroughfare south of Main Street. They all lie along the same route as County Road 24, which runs from west of town, at a frontage road along the west side of Interstate 505, to east of town, at County Road 103. Unlike other county roads, County Road 24 is still known as Gibson Road even on the portions of it that extend west of town.

This page will focus only on the sections of Gibson Road that are located inside Woodland. This chart provides a guide to the road's name changes and also lets you know what information you can find on this page versus on the County Road 24 page.
