Description:

The Federal Transit Administration (FTA), Metro (the regional government and metropolitan planning organization that serves the cities and counties of the Portland, Oregon metropolitan area) and the Tri-County Metropolitan  Transportation District of Oregon (TriMet) propose to extend the existing MAX light rail system about 12 miles from southwest Portland generally along the I-5 corridor to Tigard and Tualatin. The project also proposes roadway, bicycle and pedestrian projects associated with the light rail extension — including connections to the Oregon Health Sciences University (OHSU) campus on Marquam Hill and the Portland Community College (PCC) Sylvania campus—which would enhance access to light rail stations and/or implement high priority circulation projects in concert with the light rail line, and includes an expanded or new light rail maintenance facility.  The SW Corridor Plan, of which the SW Corridor Project is one element, includes additional improvements that would be undertaken by Metro, the local jurisdictions, and others.
