Greater Portland's plan to build a transportation system that works for everyone.

Main Street, Tigard

More sidewalks. Faster buses. Easier commutes.

For 18 months, Metro has worked with local leaders and the public on a plan to make it safer and easier for everyone to get around as the Portland area continues to grow.

The plan to get greater Portland moving includes dozens of shovel-ready projects and would create tens of thousands of family wage jobs, jumpstarting economic recovery efforts and building the transportation system the region will need in order to thrive in the decades ahead.

The Metro Council is expected to decide in July whether to refer the Get Moving 2020 transportation funding measure to the November ballot.
