  • Public Transit a History of Public Transit in Portland
    Hilary Pfeifer Meredith Dittmar PUBLIC TRANSIT A history of public transit in Portland Melody Owen Mark Richardson Smith Kristin Mitsu Shiga Chandra Bocci trimet.org/history Traveling through time Dear Reader, Transit plays a critical role in providing options for traveling throughout the region. It connects people to work, school, recreational destinations and essential services. It’s not just a commuter service. It’s a community asset. And the benefits extend far beyond those who ride. TriMet’s transit system is recognized as a national leader for its connection to land use. By linking land-use planning and transit, we have helped create livable communities, vibrant neighborhoods and provide alternatives to driving. Transit is also a catalyst for economic development. More than $10 billion in transit-oriented development has occurred within walking distance of MAX light rail stations since the decision to build in 1980. Developers like the permanence of rail when investing in projects. Transit is also valued by the community. Most of our riders— 81 percent—are choice riders. They have a car available or choose not to own one so they can ride TriMet. With more than 325,000 trips taken each weekday on our buses, MAX Light Rail and WES Commuter Rail, we eliminate 66 million annual car trips. That eases traffic congestion and helps keep our air clean. TriMet carries more people than any other U.S. transit system our size. Our many innovations have drawn the attention of government leaders, planners, transit providers and transit users from around the world. We didn’t start out that way.

  • INFRASTRUCTURE CASE STUDY: Portland Airport MAX Red Line
    INFRASTRUCTURE CASE STUDY: Portland Airport MAX Red Line SUMMARY PROJECT TYPE YEAR DEAL STRUCTURE Light rail transit 2001 Design-build (plus transfer of development rights to public land) TOTAL COST $125.8 million construction cost FINANCING Private equity and TIF (Tax Increment Financing) FUNDING Airport passenger facility charge and TriMet general funds PUBLIC BENEFIT Connects downtown to the airport and encourages economic development of the Cascade Station area Background The Portland Airport MAX Red Line, located in Portland, Oregon, is a light rail line that connects downtown Portland to the Portland International Airport.1 It was financed and constructed through a private-public partnership (P3) agreement, and is operated by TriMet, Portland’s regional transit agency.2 It opened to the public in September 2001, and now provides more than 8 million trips per year, with 3,200 people getting on or off at the Portland Airport stop each weekday.3 Project Description The private-public partnership agreement for the Airport MAX Red Line came about through an unsolicited proposal from the private construction and engineering company Bechtel.4 Their proposal was $28.2 million in funding in return for sole rights to the $125 million design-build contract, and development rights for 85 years to 120 acres of land near the airport.5 This land would come to be known as Cascade Station. The original owner of the land was the Port of Portland, and the 120 acres were part of 458 acres earmarked for development as a mixed-use business park called the Portland International Center.6 TriMet’s unsolicited proposal policy allowed Bechtel to initiate the project.

  • Service Alerts – Digital Displays
    Service Alerts – Digital Displays TriMet has digital displays at most MAX Light Rail stations to provide real-time arrival information as well as service disruption/delay messaging. Some of the displays are flat screens as shown to the right. Others are reader boards. Due to space, the messages need to be as condensed as possible. While we regularly post the same alert at stations along a line, during the Rose Quarter MAX Improvements we provided more specific alerts by geographical locations and even individual stations. This was because the service plan, while best for the majority of riders, was complex and posed communications challenges. MAX Blue Line only displays MAX Blue Line disrupted and frequency reduced.

  • Southwest-Final-Report.Pdf
    SOUTHWEST Service Enhancement Plan Final Report December 2015 Dear Reader, I am proud to present the Southwest Service Enhancement Plan, with recommendations to get you and your fellow community members where you need to go. This report provides a vision for future TriMet service in the Southwest portion of the region (for other areas, see www.trimet.org/future). The vision for future service in the Southwest Service Enhancement Plan is the culmination of many hours of meetings with our customers, neighborhood groups, employers, social service providers, educational institutions and stakeholders. Community members provided input through open house meetings, surveys, focus groups, and individual discussions. Extra effort was put into getting input from the entire community, especially youth, seniors, minorities, people with low incomes, and non-English speakers. Demographic research was used to map common trips, and cities and counties provided input on future growth areas. Lastly, TriMet staff coordinated closely with Metro’s South- west Corridor Plan process to ensure that both efforts complement one A note from another and expand transit in the southwest part of our region. TriMet The final result is a plan that calls for bus service that connects people to more places, more often, earlier, and later. The plan also recommends GeneralManager, improvements to the sidewalks and street crossings to support transit service and new community-job shuttles to serve areas that lack transit service because the demand is too low for traditional TriMet service to Neil McFarlane be economically viable. The service enhancement plans are not just visions of the future, but commitments to grow TriMet’s system.

    Community Advisory Committee Applications Report March 10, 2020 In the interest of transparency, this report includes verbatim application responses from Community Advisory Committee applicants received by the February 18, 2020 application deadline. 1 | March 10, 2020 Community Advisory Committee Applications Report Aaron Brown Interest: I am applying to represent an organizational interest Affiliation (if any): No More Freeways Organization represented (if any): Neighborhood interest: Primary interest: Urban design Secondary interest: Modes of transportation: Automobile Please tell us why you are interested in participating on this Community Advisory Committee. I am applying to sit on this Community Advisory Committee because, frankly, I'm morbidly curious to find out just how seriously ODOT is committed to public engagement, transparency, and community collaboration as the agency seeks to move forward on this billion dollar megaproject. I have spent approximately ten hours a week (and often times much, much more) for the past three and a half years tracking this proposed freeway expansion and supplementing ODOT's outreach to make sure local neighbors, climate justice advocates, parents and educational leaders, air quality and public health experts, and transportation activists were made aware of the exact discrepancies between the agency's flashy PR about the project and the decades of academic and empirical research. As one of the rabblerousers of No More Freeways, our organization has answered the calling to make sure that actual, independent community voices concerned about climate change, air pollution, traffic congestion, traffic safety, and bicycle/pedestrian/transit infrastructural improvements actually had a chance to proactively shape this mammoth infrastructure project that current and future generations of Oregonians will live with for the rest of their lives.

  • DRAFT January 2020
    DRAFT January 2020 TriMet: A History of Innovation and Service From our beginning, TriMet has served as a leader and innovator in public transit. We have delivered many “firsts” in our 50-year drive to strengthen the communities and the metropolitan region we serve. 1969 Private transit service in the Portland area faced flagging ridership and losses—threatening cuts in service. Civic and business leaders came together to find a solution and by the end of the year, TriMet was born. The first TriMet buses began service on December 1. 1973 TriMet identifies strategies to increase bus ridership by simplifying and concentrating downtown service on the 5th and 6th Avenue Transit Mall and expanding its bus fleet. 1975 TriMet begins service that eventually becomes TriMet LIFT, well in advance of requirements by the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. 1982 A grid of bus lines with some running every 15-minutes or less all day is introduced to Portland’s eastside. This provided for better cross-town direct trips without having to transfer through downtown. It set the stage for future Frequent Service and transit network improvements. 1986 The eastside Banfield Light Rail Project begins service as MAX. 1998 Westside MAX Blue Line introduces low-floor, easy-entry light rail vehicles to North America. 2001 Airport MAX Red Line (the West Coast’s first train to plane) and the modern Portland Streetcar opens. 2004 Interstate MAX Yellow Line opens ahead of schedule with improvements to connecting bus service. TransitTrackerTM - one of the first real-time arrival information systems in the nation - starts.
