Help shape a plan to make our transportation system work better for everyone, no matter how you get around.

Main Street, Tigard

More people moving to the greater Portland area means more jobs and a thriving economy – and more traffic clogging our daily travel routes.

Since early 2019, Metro has worked with local leaders and community members to develop a plan to get our region moving by fixing our most dangerous and congested streets and giving people more transportation choices, so everyone can get where they need to go safely and on time.

This spring, the Metro Council will consider referring a transportation funding package to the November 2020 ballot.
