  • Moving Forward TV Highway Background
    Background Summary Report The Moving Forward TV Highway Enhanced Transit and Access Plan is studying the feasibility of enhanced transit service in the TV Highway corridor, primarily within unincorporated Washington County between SW Cornelius Pass Road and SW 160th Avenue. The TV Highway corridor was selected as a “Next Phase Regional Priority Corridor” in Metro’s 2035 High Capacity Transit (HCT) System Plan and has been the subject of substantial state, regional, and local planning work. The County is undertaking a corridor refinement study that will define feasible transit concepts, identify needed access improvements such as bicycle and pedestrian facilities and highway crossings to potential transit stations along the corridor within the project area, and lay the groundwork for the corridor to be elevated to a regional priority HCT corridor. This report documents relevant plans, studies, projects and policies derived from prior planning efforts. These plans, studies and projects are listed below in Table 1, and summarized in Appendix A.

  • News & Events for the City of Hillsboro Future Willamette Water
    CITY VIEWS NEWS & EVENTS FOR THE CITY OF HILLSBORO May/June 2015 Future Willamette Water Pipeline Route Recommended Preferred Pipeline Route Follows Cornelius Pass Road, 206th Avenue in Hillsboro The City of Hillsboro Water Department (Hillsboro) and Tualatin Valley Water District (TVWD) have identified a preferred Willamette Water Supply Program (WWSP) pipeline route to deliver water more than 30 miles north from Wilsonville to local customers. By 2026, the WWSP will begin supplying water to more than 300,000 residents and businesses in Washington County. A two-year study guided the decision by Hillsboro’s Utilities Commission’s to identify the mid-Willamette as Hillsboro’s next source for drinking water – and the first water supply source outside of the Tualatin River Watershed. Since then, Hillsboro and TVWD have worked closely to develop and implement the billion-dollar plan Hillsboro will draw water from the mid-Willamette by 2026. for water infrastructure, including an expanded Willamette River Water Treatment Plant in Wilsonville, more than 30 miles of pipeline, and additional water storage tanks. The favored route follows Cornelius Pass Road and 206th Avenue in Hillsboro, and is the result of months of work reviewing multiple routes against selection criteria, and getting input from staff, policymakers and community members. Over the coming year, the pipeline design will be further refined, and could be changed, based on input from local jurisdictions. continued on page 2 MAYOR’S MESSAGE Hillsboro’s PCC Future Connect Students are Shining Graduation season is here and one of the most exciting ceremonies this year will feature Hillsboro students completing the Portland Community College (PCC) Future Connect program.

  • Cornelius Pass Road Safety Evaluation JTA Final Report
    Cornelius Pass Road Safety Evaluation JTA Final Report BACKGROUND The Jobs and Transportation Act, adopted by the 2009 Oregon Legislative Assembly, directs the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT), in consultation with local government, to develop design alternatives to improve safety for at least one county road that is used for hazardous materials routing in lieu of a state highway. ODOT identified Cornelius Pass Road, an arterial that runs between Washington County (City of Hillsboro) and Multnomah County (Lower Columbia River Highway [US 30]), as a road meeting these requirements. The project vicinity is shown to the right. This road safety evaluation focuses on a five-mile section of Cornelius Pass Road within Multnomah County. Prior to the 2009 corridor safety directives, the Cornelius Pass Road Work Group was formed following the tragic fatality crash involving a local teenager. The work group focused on developing safety improvements and included representatives from Multnomah, Columbia and Washington counties, ODOT, the Taija Belwood Foundation, the Oregon Trucking Association, Multnomah County law enforcement and several Oregon legislators. Members of this work group contributed to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Road Safety Audit (RSA). The RSA was completed in December of 2008 and covered Multnomah County’s five-mile segment of Cornelius Pass Road between the Washington County border and US 30. The RSA identified 18 safety issues along the corridor and provided a set of recommended low-cost improvement options. Since the completion of the RSA, Multnomah County utilized federal stimulus funds to implement many of the recommended low-cost options. Notable improvements included upgrading critical sections of guardrail, installing centerline and shoulder rumble strips, vehicle speed feedback signs, and a pair of flashing yellow beacons with warning signs.

  • Freight Element
    Freight Element Washington County is often dubbed the “Economic Engine of Oregon.” Led by established industry clusters in high-tech, clean-tech, and active-wear, Washington County is home to more than 230,000 jobs and the highest average weekly wages in Oregon. Critical to maintaining and raising this status is the efficient movement of goods by road, rail, and air. This element includes information on existing conditions and future needs for roadway freight, freight rail, and air cargo; general aviation and pipelines are also covered. In addition, this element includes the Truck Route map and the Avia- tion, Railroad, and Pipeline map. Efficient freight movement is also addressed in TSP Goal 2: Economic Vitality, which provides specific objectives and strategies related to goods movement. ROADWAY FREIGHT CONNECTIONS This section primarily addresses the transport of freight on roadways because it is the only mode of freight travel over which Washington County has control. Significant amounts of freight are transported by rail and pipeline, and, to a much-lesser extent, air. However, planning for these modes is done by private companies or other government agencies. Rail, pipeline, and air travel modes are described as separate elements later in this element. Given the close connec- tion between freight movement and economic growth, it is critically important for Washington County’s freight connec- tions to provide efficient and reliable transportation of goods. To keep pace with the demand for freight movement, which is expected to double by 2035, Washington County must identify and address gaps and deficiencies in the freight transportation network. The following section identifies key freight connections and summarizes existing freight needs, including previous find- ings regarding freight system needs from Metro’s 2014 RTP, the Metro Regional Freight Plan, and the ODOT Portland Region Economic Corridor Evaluation Report.
