  • City of Portland Major Projects and Citywide Programs
    Jan. 30 th 2015 City of Portland Major Projects & Citywide Programs Transportation System Plan Update This is the list of major transportation projects and programs proposed for inclusion in the Transportation System Plan as City of Portland projects. Constrained projects and programs are those that could be funded over the next 20 years based on current revenue forecasts. Anticipated timeframes for implementation are shown for all Constrained projects and programs. Projects and programs were recommended for the financially Constrained portion of the list based on how well they align with adopted City goals and policies, how cost effective they would be in achieving those goals, and the level of community support for each project. Unconstrained projects are on the major projects list as identified needs, but they are unlikely to be funded over the next 20 years without substantial new revenue sources. Financially Constrained Facility Estimated Cost TSP ID RTP ID Lead Agency Project Name Project Location Project Description (Within Timeframe Owner ($2014) Revenue Forecast) Gaps and deficiencies in Portland's pedestrian network present significant barriers to pedestrians. Many of these can be remedied through modest expenditures to address the most critically needed improvements. These projects should contribute to an increase in safe walking as disincentives to usage are eliminated and the continuity of the pedestrian network is improved. Example projects Pedestrian Network include sidewalk gap infill, sidewalk improvements, safer shoulders, 10005 Portland Portland Citywide $ 63,440,000 X Years 1 - 20 Completion Program shared streets, pathways, trails, crossing improvements, wayfinding improvements, accessibility improvements, and signal modifications.

The BBAC is a collection of citizens from a broad range of personal and professional backgrounds including union representatives, non-profit organizations, members of neighborhood associations, city and state employees, as well as members of PBOT’s Pedestrian, Freight, and Bicycle Advisory Committees. Our committee members reflect our value for diversity. We endeavor to make a space that is welcoming to people of color and residents from all Portland neighborhoods. BBAC members believe that all City transportation investments should pursue the following goals: ● Equity: Correcting the harmful legacies of racism, displacement, and marginalization that led to underinvestment in communities of color. ● Safety: Designing streets to protect our most vulnerable users and make them safer for all. ● Climate Action: Reducing greenhouse gas emissions and working toward a carbon- neutral transportation system. We strongly support PBOT’s adoption of these values within its recent planning documents, particularly its Strategic Plan for 2019-2022.

We serve on the BBAC as volunteers who have our city’s best interests in mind. With helpful support from the Director and her staff, we have spent many hours over the last five months reviewing the Bureau’s obligations and deliberating over its budget and strategy priorities. Together we have arrived at the following recommendations. Investment Strategy: The Bureau’s proposed Investment Strategy prioritizes funding projects that address three primary concerns: maintaining existing assets, managing for growth, and advancing safety. Underlying the selection and evaluation process is the Bureau’s laudable focus on equity. We support the adoption of this “triple-win” strategy. We are pleased to see safety and equity as top priorities of the Director and her staff.
