REVIEW OF THE TRANSPORTATION PLANNING PROCESS IN THE PORTLAND, OREGON, METROPOLITAN AREA
This formal, comprehensive review of the planning process in the Portland metropolitan area was conducted by FHWA and FTA headquarters and field staff, with the assistance of the US DOT Volpe Center. The federal team concluded that Metro and other area agencies performing transportation planning conduct a competently managed and organized continuing, cooperative, and comprehensive planning process, produce adequate planning products and use acceptable planning tools. Efforts are being made to implement a multi-modal planning approach, and the transit operators are involved in the process. This review will assist the Portland metropolitan area to prepare for future formal certification.
