Or. Admin. R. 660-012-0710 - Public Transportation System Requirements
(1)
Cities and counties shall plan for a connected local transit network that
serves key destinations identified as provided in OAR 660-012-0360, and can be
accessed by housing and jobs within the planning area. Cities must identify
transit corridors, including:
(a) Priority
transit corridors, which are transit corridors that are planned for the highest
levels of regional transit service providing for a wide range of mobility
needs; and
(b) Other transit
corridors, which are planned to carry at least a moderate level of transit
service providing for basic mobility needs.
(2) Cities and counties shall plan for a
range of transit supportive facilities along priority transit corridors and in
other locations where transit priority is desired. Cities and counties shall:
(a) Coordinate with transit service providers
to determine transit priority infrastructure needed on priority transit routes
for efficient transit service;
(b)
Prioritize expedited access for transit vehicles to and from major stops,
stations, and terminals; and
(c)
Consider intercity transit access to stations or terminals.
(3) Cities and counties shall plan
for safe and accessible transit stops and stations.
(a) Along priority transit corridors and
other locations where transit priority is desired, cities and counties shall
coordinate with transit service providers on the construction of transit
supportive facilities. Cities and counties shall allow transit service
providers to construct amenities at stops outright, with limited permitting
requirements. These amenities include but are not limited to: pedestrian
facility repair and extension, signage, lighting, benches, and
shelters.
(b) Cities and counties
shall limit on-street parking at transit stop locations at the request of a
transit service provider.
(4) Cities and counties shall coordinate with
transit service providers to identify needs for intercity transit services at a
level appropriate to the size of the urban area and the size and distance of
intercity markets.
(5) Cities and
counties shall coordinate with transit service providers to identify gaps in
transit service provided in the transportation system plan, and gaps for each
priority transit corridor and other transit corridors.
(6) Cities and counties with an urban area of
less than 10,000 population need not plan for priority transit
corridors.
