Transportation Observations, Considerations, and Recommendations for Deschutes National Forest

A field investigation of the current transportation infrastructure and operations at Deschutes National Forest (DNF) by the interagency Transportation Assistance Group (TAG) was conducted June 28 – July 1, 2009, on behalf of the United States Forest Service (USFS), in connection with the Transit in the Parks (TRIP) program. This TAG report was prepared subsequent to the site visit and documents the conditions observed, transportation issues and considerations, and recommendations arising from the TAG team’s analysis. The site visit and the preparation of this report were facilitated and funded by USFS. DNF is interested in accommodating increasing visitation through strategic investments in existing roads, trails, parking, and alternative transportation infrastructure in partnerships with other transportation and recreation providers in the region. The TAG was requested to help DNF conduct a preliminary study of primary corridors to assist DNF in focusing an alternative transportation feasibility study.
