Current Local Opportunities: Transit
• Inner Powell
• Minor transit enhancements were studied on Inner Powell and found to be expensive and ineffective
• Powell-Division BRT project concluded that an effective project could not be done without elevating or tunneling in Inner Powell
• Too much traffic, space is too constrained
![Page 17: Local Investment Team (LIT) Corridor Tours: Powell Boulevard To… · Powell Boulevard (Central Portion) (82nd Ave to 174th Ave) 2 of 3 Powell Blvd 82 nd e 174 th e I-205 Powell Butte](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042318/5f07111f7e708231d41b2317/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Transit – Requires Major Investment
• A large investment is needed to serve Inner Powell
• high ridership potential for LRT or BRT
• Constrained environment requires elevated or tunnel
• Planning needed to identify mode, terminus, design, environmental impact study (EIS): $15M
A major investment would be needed to work on Inner Powell.
