BRIEFING – TriMet Light Rail Substation Replacements in the Central City
CITY CONTACT: Joe Recker, TriMet, reckerj@trimet.org 503-962-2893
CITY CONTACT: Tim Heron, PP&D, tim.heron@portlandoregon.gov
TriMet proposes to replace the original Banfield light rail substations that are now obsolete and more than 40 years old. Substation replacement will address unique challenges of preserving MAX system resiliency during construction, accommodating modern system requirements, and providing an appropriate design response to the Central City context. TriMet is requesting an advisory briefing to seek advice from the Portland Design Commission to exempt the next generation substations from the Land Use process by Updating the 2023 Guide to Standard Light Rail Transit Improvements in Public Streets.
