Universal Citation: OR Admin Rules 660-012-0170

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 3, March 1, 2024

(1) Cities and counties shall create a combined project list by combining:

(a) The pedestrian project list developed as provided in OAR 660-012-0520;

(b) The bicycle project list developed as provided in OAR 660-012-0620;

(c) The public transportation project list developed as provided in OAR 660-012-0720; and

(d) The streets and highways project list developed as provided in OAR 660-012-0820.

(2) Cities and counties shall, to the extent practicable, combine proposed projects from multiple single-mode lists into a single multimodal project on the combined project list.

(3) Cities and counties shall develop an unconstrained project list by prioritizing the combined project list, including multimodal projects. Cities and counties need not include every project in the combined project list on the unconstrained project list. There is no limit to the number of projects that may be included on the unconstrained project list.

(4) Cities and counties shall develop a method of prioritizing projects on the unconstrained project list. Projects on the unconstrained project list may be ranked individually or in tiers. Unconstrained project lists ranked in tiers shall have enough tiers to clearly be able to determine the relative ranking of projects when making decisions. Cities and counties shall describe the method used to prioritize the unconstrained project list in the transportation system plan. Cities and counties must emphasize the following requirements when developing a method of prioritizing projects on the unconstrained project list:

(a) The project will help reduce vehicle miles traveled;

(b) The project burdens underserved populations less than and benefit as much as the city or county population as a whole; and

(c) The project will help achieve the performance targets set as provided in OAR 660-012-0910.

(5) Cities and counties shall develop planning-level cost estimates for the top ranked projects on the prioritized unconstrained project list as provided in section (4). The city or county shall make estimates for as many projects as the city or county reasonably believes could be funded in the planning period. The city or county need not make cost estimates for every project on the unconstrained project list.
