Purpose of Ite m Ordinance 362 requests that the TriMet Board of Directors (Board) retroactively adopt service changes and revise route designations now described in TriMet Code Chapter 22, Section 22.05. 2. Type of Agenda Item Initial Contract Contract Modification Other: Ordinance 3. Reason for Board Action The Board may adopt service changes and revise TriMet Code route designations only by adoption of an Ordinance. 4. Type of Action Resolution Ordinance 1st Reading and Public Hearing Ordinance 2nd Reading 5. Background In response to dramatic losses in ridership and adoption of health precautions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, TriMet implemented urgent service changes on April 5, 2020 and August 31, 2020. The first set of service changes were put in place on April 5, 2020 in response to a precipitous fall in ridership due to the outbreak of the pandemic. TriMet staff quickly developed a service reduction plan intended to protect transit service levels provided to low-income and minority communities, hospitals, and major job centers with a high percentage of low-wage jobs. The April 5, 2020 service reduction plan included: • No change in weekday service levels for 24 of 85 bus lines (28% of all lines) • Weekday service adjustments to 61 of 85 bus lines (72% of all lines) • Bus lines receiving weekday service adjustments transitioned from weekday service to Saturday service; lines without Saturday service had their weekday service modified to a lower level; span of service (later or earlier) was adjusted to accommodate demand • Bus lines with weekend service were adjusted to Sunday service for the entire weekend • Weekday MAX service was adjusted to operate every 15 min.

There was also concern that such a long corridor, with so many issues, might be too expensive to address in a complete way, and that consideration would have to be given to priority projects. Other issues, such as equitable access and problems with projected growth were brought up, but the primary focus was on safety issues and transit access.
