Projects

The Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT) promotes active ways to travel so we can move more people in the same amount of space. This supports PBOT's goals on mobility, climate, and equity. The industry term is transportation demand management (TDM). The 2021 Way to Go Plan guides this work.

Effective March 31, 2023, the WPTC Plan lays out a vision for a healthy, connected, and multi-cultural town center and includes an action plan to meet the diverse needs of current and future residents and businesses.

This project is on pause until 2027. Find more information below.

The Willamette River Crossing Project will build an earthquake-resilient water line deep under the Willamette River. The project will enhance our water system's resilience, ensuring safe and abundant water for generations to come.

In 2023, Portland was awarded a U.S. Department of Transportation SMART grant to pilot a Zero Emission Delivery Zone and digital infrastructure tools. This PBOT project tests ways to create a safer, cleaner, more equitable transportation system while boosting economic opportunities.

PBOT will be implementing a new parking permit area in Eliot that will go into effect Oct. 1, 2024. The permit area is designed to make it easier for residents and their guests to find parking on the street in the evening October through May during large events in and around the Rose Quarter.
