STUDY AREA #1 HILLSBORO-BETHANY Overview 2010 2035 Growth Growth % Households 17,614 21,339 3,725 21% Employment 28,491 50,506 22,015 77% Summary About 75% of households are within ½ mile of regional destinations such as schools, shopping centers and major employers – slightly above county urban area average. Employment is expected to increase 77% by 2035, while households increase 21%. HILLSBORO-BETHANY CONNECTIVITY Study Area #1 Findings Street network and intersection density is below county urban area average. Roads and intersections are generally far apart, due in part to large industrial properties in the study area. Roads have relatively few dead-ends or cul-de-sacs. ACTIVE HILLSBORO-BETHANY TRANSPORTATION Study Area #1 Crossing Spacing on Major Streets Average: 0.26 miles Longest: 0.97 miles on Sunset Highway Findings Trail and Sidewalk coverage is better than county urban area average. However, critical gaps remain on Rock Creek and Waterhouse Trails. Bike facility coverage is slightly below county urban area average. Several arterials, including NW 185th Avenue and Cornell and Evergreen Roads, were improved to county standard in the past 15 years. However, several major gaps in the sidewalk and bike lane network remain, including West Union Road. Crossing spacing on Sunset Highway and Brookwood Parkway are well over typical (¼ mile).

However, SOV mode share is projected to increase relative to 2010 base. HILLSBORO-BETHANY TRANSIT Study Area #1 *Less than 20 low income / minority households identified in Study Area Findings Transit access measures are below the county urban area average. Only one bus – the #48 Cornell – serves east-west travel seven days a week. A change to the #47 bus route effective September 1, 2013 will provide additional access to households north of Sunset Highway. MOTOR VEHICLE HILLSBORO-BETHANY Study Area #1 DEMAND & TRAVEL TIME Findings Motor vehicle travel miles traveled in the study area are projected to increase 46% in 2035 relative to 2010 and VMT per capita is expected to increase by 20%.

Several of the neighborhoods north of Sunset Highway have relatively few commercial services within walking distance of homes. Employment and households are expected to increase by approximately 50% by 2035. CONNECTIVITY BEAVERTON-CEDAR MILL Study Area #2 Findings Street network and intersection density are similar to county urban area average. Roads have relatively few dead-ends or cul-de-sacs. Older neighborhoods with grid or modified grid street networks help connectivity in this study area. Sunset Highway and creek corridors are the most impactful connectivity gaps. ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION BEAVERTON-CEDAR MILL Study Area #2 Crossing Spacing on Major Streets Average: 0.26 miles Longest: 0.94 miles on Sunset Highway Findings Sidewalk, bike facility, and trail coverage is worse than county urban area average. Major gaps in active mode facility coverage include Cornell Road and Canyon Road. Crossing spacing on Sunset Highway is well over typical (¼ mile). Other roadways with relatively long spacing between crossings include Highway 217, Murray Boulevard and Canyon Road. Multi-use trail coverage will improve as several planned trails are completed in the corridor, including the Beaverton Creek Trail / Crescent Connection.

A 3-4% increase is identified for combined walk, bike, and transit mode shares. Non-SOV mode share is projected to fall within regional target range. TRANSIT BEAVERTON-CEDAR MILL Study Area #2 Findings Transit access measures are significantly above the county urban area average. The study area is served by more than ten bus lines and includes frequent light rail service. Beaverton and Sunset transit centers are the two busiest transit exchanges in Washington County. MOTOR VEHICLE DEMAND & BEAVERTON-CEDAR MILL TRAVEL TIME Study Area #2 Findings Total motor vehicle travel miles traveled in the study area are projected to increase 20% in 2035 relative to 2010. However, VMT per capita is expected to decrease by approximately 21%. Significant increases in roadway travel times anticipated for 2035 PM peak on: o Cornell Road (EB), Murray Boulevard to Miller Road (25% increase) o Canyon Road (EB), Cedar Hills Boulevard to US 26 Ramp (23% increase) o Murray Boulevard (SB), Cornell Road to TV Highway (23% increase) CONGESTION BEAVERTON-CEDAR MILL Study Area #2 Congested Roadway Miles Congested Roadways – 2035 PM PeakOvervie w Red = Demand Volume > Roadway Capacity Volume to Capacity Ratio Yellow = Demand Volume > 90% of Roadway Capacity Gray = Demand Volume < 90% of Roadway Capacity Findings Significant increases in roadway congestion and delay are anticipated in 2035 relative to 2010.

The study area contains portions of the Beaverton and Tanasbourne-Amberglen regional centers, which are rich in mixed uses. Employment and households are expected to increase by approximately 30-40% by 2035. CONNECTIVITY CORNELL/WALKER/JENKINS Study Area #3 without dead ends Findings Street network and intersection density are higher than county urban area average. The corridor is well developed and does not include many natural constraints. Roads have relatively few dead-ends or cul-de-sacs. ACTIVE CORNELL/WALKER/JENKINS TRANSPORTATION Study Area #3 Crossing Spacing on Major Streets Average: 0.26 miles Longest: 0.94 miles on Sunset Highway Findings Sidewalk, bike facility, and trail coverage are generally better than county urban area average, however major gaps exist on Walker Road and areas in the west side of the study area. The most significant barrier is the Sunset Highway, where average spacing between crossings is about 0.94 mile. Murray Blvd has the longest average distance between crossings on arterials – 0.38 miles. The study area contains a critical gap in the West Side Trail – an overcrossing of Sunset Highway.

TRANSIT CORNELL/WALKER/JENKINS Study Area #3 Findings Transit access for households is significantly above the county urban area average, however service for low income and minority households is slightly below average. Transit access for employees is slightly above county urban area average.
