Or. Admin. R. 660-012-0700 - Public Transportation System Planning
(1)
Transportation system plans must include a public transportation system element
that meets the requirements of this rule. Cities and counties must work in
close cooperation with transit service providers in order to complete the
public transportation system element of the transportation system plan.
(a) Cities and counties shall coordinate with
public transportation service providers to develop the public transportation
system plan element.
(b) The public
transportation system plan element must include elements of the public
transportation system that are in the control of the city, county, and
coordinating transportation facility owners.
(c) The public transportation system plan
element must identify elements of the public transportation system that the
city or county will work with transit service providers to realize or improve,
including transit priority corridors, transit supportive infrastructure, and
stop amenities.
(d) Cities and
counties must align the public transportation system plan transit element with
Transit Development Plans, goals, and other strategic planning documents
developed by a transit service provider.
(e) Transportation system plans do not
control public transportation elements exclusively controlled by transit
service providers. These include funding or details of transit service
provision, including timetables and routing.
(2) A public transportation system element
must include the following elements:
(a) The
complete public transportation system as described in section (3) that includes
the full buildout and provision of services of the public transportation system
within the urban growth boundary;
(b) Identification of gaps and deficiencies
in the public transportation system as described in section (4);
(c) Locations of key public transportation
destinations identified as provided in OAR 660-012-0360; and
(d) A list of prioritized public
transportation system projects developed as provided in OAR
660-012-0720.
(3) The
complete public transportation system is the full buildout of a complete public
transportation system within the planning area. The city or county determines
the complete public transportation system plan by:
(a) Using the public transportation system
inventory developed under OAR 660-012-0705 as a base; and
(b) Adding the minimum public transportation
services and facilities to places that do not presently meet the minimum public
transportation system requirements in OAR 660-012-0710.
(4) Cities and counties shall identify gaps
and deficiencies in the public transportation system by comparing the complete
public transportation system with the public transportation system inventory
developed under OAR 660-012-0705. Cities and counties must include any part of
the complete public transportation system not presently built or operated to
the standards in the complete public transportation system plan as a gap or
deficiency. Cities and counties must identify gaps in the transit supportive
facilities provided on priority transit corridors and other transit corridors
identified as provided in OAR 660-012-0710. Transit supportive facilities
include, but are not limited to:
(a) Stations,
hubs, stops, shelters, signs, and ancillary features; and
(b) Transit priority infrastructure,
including signals, queue jumps, and semi-exclusive or exclusive bus lanes or
transitways.
