4. PUBLIC COMMENT – None.
5. 5. SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL ODOT GRANTS
Tina discussed the two ODOT Safe Routes to School Competitive Infrastructure Grant Program
submittals. The one for Metzger will install an enhanced pedestrian crossing with marked crosswalk,
ADA-compliant curb ramps, and Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFB) at SW Locust and
Lincoln and install approximately 1,465 feet of curb and sidewalk within the existing ROW on the
north side of Locust. The project will cost just under $1 million. The other was for Templeton
Elementary at SW McDonald and SW Sattler will install traffic calming measures, sidewalk infill, and
enhanced pedestrian crossings with ADA-compliant curb ramps and RRFB’s at SW McDonald and
Omara/98th and SW Sattler and 96th. The project is estimated at $530,000. The funding for the
local match for both projects would come from funds from the Washington County Major Streets
Transportation Improvement Program (MSTIP).
6. HALL BLVD JURISDICTIONAL TRANSFER
Dave gave a brief presentation on the Hall Blvd. jurisdictional transfer talks with ODOT which
aligns with Tigard’s Strategic Plan. He discussed the physical context, Policy, regional framework for
the transfer, process, the Tigard condition assessment study, the Memorandum of Understanding
with ODOT, and next steps. The final decision on transfer will be made by the Oregon
Transportation Commission.

7. DOWNTOWN TIGARD REIMAGINED GRANT
Dave gave a brief presentation on planning around the Southwest Corridor stations and downtown
Tigard. A Transportation and Growth Management grant, funded by ODOT and Department of
Land Conservation and Development, was awarded to Tigard. It will be used to look at Transit
Oriented Development (TOD), especially around the Hall Blvd. station and potential to slightly
move the station to allow more developable parcels.
8. TRIMET RESPONSE TO TTAC SWC LETTER
The letter was included in the packet. It was noted that the letters from both TTAC and TCAC
received a lot of discussion at the advisory committee meeting, especially regarding the TOD.
9. TTAC SELF-GUIDED PROJECT TOUR
Members discussed areas they had visited. Concern was expressed about the Fanno Creek Trail
under roadway crossing at Scholls Ferry with the height potentially being reduced to seven feet. A
solution is under discussion. Concerns can be addressed to Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District
or to Tigard’s Project Manager Zach Morris. The area around the intersection of Tiedeman and
North Dakota needs a long-term fix, but Dave will discuss short term workarounds with Zach
including the right turn green arrow from Greenberg to Tiedeman. The 30% drawings for 72nd Ave.
need to be completed to codify the new design standards. More wayfinding signs along the Fanno
Creek Trail are needed along with a large sign showing the different Tigard connections. The issue
will be addressed during the Parks Master Plan process.
10. INFORMATION SHARING
A. Due to the election the November meeting will be rescheduled. A Doodle poll was sent to
members to determine availability. The meeting will be shortened and followed by the TSP
update. The November meeting will focus on the December joint meeting with Council.
B. Alan shared info on Washington County’s cyclist detention system
(https://pamplinmedia.com/bvt/481770-388673-washington-county-tests-new-cyclist-
detection-system) and the Washington Square Plan update
(https://pamplinmedia.com/ttt/89-news/482893-389108-tigard-moves-forward-with-

Ruth Harshfield Chair, Tigard Transportation Advisory Committee (TTAC)
Via email to Dave Roth, Senior Transportation Planner, City of Tigard
Dear Ms. Harshfield and TTAC,
Thank you for your letter of August 24, 2020. We appreciate the committee’s spirit of
collaboration toward our shared goals of maximizing transit ridership and supporting a
safe and accessible transportation network that is thoughtfully integrated with existing
and future land uses.
The Tigard Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Charter outlines coordinated efforts for
TriMet and City of Tigard to facilitate and encourage TOD around stations. Pursuant to
this March 2020 agreement, staff and consultants from both jurisdictions are engaged in
planning efforts to advance this ongoing work. One of the first tasks that all staff have
been working on is station optimization -- an evaluation of each station location and its
urban design elements to maximize TOD potential. The team agreed to sequence these
station evaluations , starting with Elmhurst Street, then Hall Boulevard, then 68th
Parkway:
• At the Elmhurst Street station, this collaboration led to design revisions that
better position adjacent parcels for future development. These revisions will be
reflected in the 60% plans . TriMet is also working with Tigard staff to consider
their preferred concept for the 70th Avenue streetscape design.
• For the Hall Blvd station, TriMet staff is currently analyzing the feasibility of
recommendations from Tigard staff and consultants for repositioning the station,
Park & Ride and operations and maintenance facility (OMF). Analysis also
includes urban design, bicycle and pedestrian safety treatments for Hall Blvd
consistent with ODOT’s Blueprint for Urban Design. Outcomes from this work will
be reflected in the project’s 60% design.
• For the 68th Par kw ay s tation, the team will begin station optimization work this
fall, with outcomes to be reflected in the 60% design. Efforts will focus on
supporting safe access to transit, vehicular circulation and TOD potential. The
work will incorporate ongoing discussions with ODOT about the planned Hwy
99W repaving project, and opportunities to improve safety for people biking,
walking and crossing.
TriMet is actively engaged with the city in their pursuit of grant funds to integrate a
bicycle and pedestrian path into the new Highway 217 light rail bridge. This station
access project, along with nearly 30 others, will be included in the Final Environmental
Impact Statement.
We appreciate the TTAC’s interest in continued collaboration for placemaking efforts,
and we look forward to working together to create welcoming spaces and mobility
options that are safe and easy for people to use, while reflecting the character and
diversity of Tigard.
Sincerely,
Steve Witter
