The Replacement Program includes the necessary replacement and rehabilitation of existing capital assets. The Improvement Program includes additions to the capital plant that further TriMet’s program priorities. TriMet’s draft Five Year Action Plan is as follows: Focusing On Our Customers Create a culture of safety Restore, expand and build more service Upgrade and improve access to transit with focused investments Modernize fare collection Increase employee presence on the system Living Within Our Means Enhance employee productivity Increase fare inspection Bring health care costs in line Building Partnerships for Transit Growth Engage our customers and constituents Encourage partnerships with local governments. The FY2012-FY2016 Draft Capital Improvement Plan includes many projects that further these principles. Projects that upgrade and improve access to transit with focused investments include: bus replacement, Eastside light rail station improvements, Transit Tracker, Bus Stop Development, Security and Public Address are included. TriMet is beginning to work on how to modernize fare collection within existing resources. As in the past, there is continued emphasis on cost-effectively extending the useful life of equipment, vehicles, facilities, and making capital replacement expenditures only when cost of maintenance warrants the expenditure. This had led to a substantial reduction in replacement costs. 1 It is important to note that funding has not been identified for all capital projects in the CIP, and most projects in the improvement section are discretionary. All costs shown in the Draft Capital Improvement Program are 2012 dollars. Capital Budgeting Policies and Approaches For planning purposes, TriMet uses a definition of “capital” that is close to the Federal Transit Administration’s definition of capital. Capital projects entail acquisition, construction, improvement, and maintenance of facilities and equipment for use in transit. Examples include: . Replacement of vehicles; . Expansion of vehicle fleets; . Crime prevention and security equipment; . Purchase and installation of service and support equipment; . Accessory and miscellaneous equipment such as mobile radio units, bus stop signs, supervisory vehicles, fare boxes, computers, and shop and garage equipment; . Construction of maintenance facilities, including land acquisition, design, engineering, demolition; . Rehabilitation of maintenance facilities, including design and engineering, land acquisition, and relocation; . Construction of other facilities, e.g., transfer facilities, intermodal terminals and bus shelters, including design and engineering, land acquisition, etc.; and . Capital support equipment, including computer hardware, software, bus diagnostic equipment, and other equipment that enhances operating efficiency. Rolling stock, including rail cars, locomotives, work trains, ferryboats; . Track; . Line equipment; . Line structures; . Passenger stations, depots and terminals, including ferry terminals; . Signals and communications; . Power equipment and substations; . Projects to improve safety and security; . Operational support, including computer hardware and software; . Systems extensions or new system construction, including engineering, demolition, etc.; and 2 . Land acquisition, design, and construction for fixed guideways. For budgeting and accounting purposes, however, TriMet has revised its definition of capital. Many items that were once defined as capital are now considered operating projects. These include projects such as roof replacement, rail grinding, and ice caps. As a rule, projects that cannot be tagged for fixed asset inventory are operating projects. Projects that previously fell under the definition of capital should continue to be maintained in and considered for funding via the Draft Capital Improvement Plan. If funded they will be show up in the operating budget as one-time-only expenditures, instead of being included in the capital budget. 1. Priorities: TriMet views its capital projects as either (a) additions to the capital plant or as (b) rehabilitation and replacement of the existing capital plant. Capital budgeting priorities are: . First Priority: Mandatory Replacement Mandatory Safety Regulatory Requirements Second Priority: Improvement Program While replacement projects may occasionally be deferred for one or two years, they are not elective. Adequate maintenance and replacement is necessary to maintain safe, reliable and attractive service for our customers and minimize future maintenance and replacement costs. It attracts new customers and helps keep current customers. 2. Planning and Budgeting Replacement Projects TriMet plans and budgets Replacement projects as follows: . Each department maintains an inventory and condition assessment of capital items. The purpose of the inventory is to estimate the life expectancy, condition and replacement costs

  • District Background
    DRAFT SOUTHEAST LIAISON DISTRICT PROFILE DRAFT Introduction In 2004 the Bureau of Planning launched the District Liaison Program which assigns a City Planner to each of Portland’s designated liaison districts. Each planner acts as the Bureau’s primary contact between community residents, nonprofit groups and other government agencies on planning and development matters within their assigned district. As part of this program, District Profiles were compiled to provide a survey of the existing conditions, issues and neighborhood/community plans within each of the liaison districts. The Profiles will form a base of information for communities to make informed decisions about future development. This report is also intended to serve as a tool for planners and decision-makers to monitor the implementation of existing plans and facilitate future planning. The Profiles will also contribute to the ongoing dialogue and exchange of information between the Bureau of Planning, the community, and other City Bureaus regarding district planning issues and priorities. PLEASE NOTE: The content of this document remains a work-in-progress of the Bureau of Planning’s District Liaison Program. Feedback is appreciated. Area Description Boundaries The Southeast District lies just east of downtown covering roughly 17,600 acres. The District is bordered by the Willamette River to the west, the Banfield Freeway (I-84) to the north, SE 82nd and I- 205 to the east, and Clackamas County to the south. Bureau of Planning - 08/03/05 Southeast District Page 1 Profile Demographic Data Population Southeast Portland experienced modest population growth (3.1%) compared to the City as a whole (8.7%).

  • 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.
