The City is updating its 20-year Transportation System Plan (TSP). The TSP guides all transportation investments in Beaverton and was first established in 1997. The TSP is a required policy document. Periodic updates are mandated by the State of Oregon and must meet state and regional planning requirements. The last time Beaverton’s TSP was updated was fourteen years ago, in 2010.
The 2026 TSP update is a major update. It aims to establish a climate friendly and equitable transportation system, where people can safely, easily, and comfortably connect to the activities, places, and services that are important to them.

The Microtransit Pilot Project, a partnership between Washington County and Ride Connection, Inc, will expand public transportation options in the South Cooper Mountain, River Terrace and Progress Ridge areas starting in early 2026.
Microtransit is a flexible shared-ride shuttle service that will pick up riders at a preferred location and transport them to schools, jobs, shopping, medical appointments, frequent TriMet services and other important destinations within a specified service zone. Riders will schedule rides using an app, website or phone. Washington County Department of Land Use and Transportation invites you to an online open house to explore potential future improvements to Farmington Road. Share your feedback by June 1st.

Metro is studying how smaller, more flexible transit options, called community connectors, can help connect more people to transit routes. Help identify destinations you cannot reach by transit today, especially areas where you think these services could better link your community to existing bus, MAX and WES Commuter Rail stops. Take the survey (also in Spanish), by May 4.
Community connector transit is a type of public transportation that typically uses smaller vehicles— often shuttles or vans—to get people to work, school, shops, the doctor or parks. Community connectors are often more flexible than traditional buses, allowing for off-route pickups and drop-offs or on-demand requests whenever and wherever needed (similar to services like Uber or Lyft). This flexibility can help people travel to light rail stations or frequent bus routes that may be a mile or more away from their homes or destinations. |
