  1. Moving Goods, Creating Jobs:Planning Portland Region Corridors for Economic Growth

  2. How Can ODOT Support Portland-Area Economic Growth and Job Creation? • Understand the role of freight in key job-growth sectors • Identify key regional job-growth areas that generate freight traffic (Economic Areas) • Identify and prioritize the key corridors serving those sites (Economic Corridors) • Evaluate the performance of corridors in relation to serving freight movement

  3. Portland Regional Context – Why Freight Matters? • Traded Industries are the core of the economy • Goods production and movement relies upon the highway system for connecting to shipping gateways • Economic growth relies upon maintaining regionally competitive levels of access and shipping reliability

  4. Portland Regional Context – Why Freight Matters? • A growing demand on freight movement: • Internet purchasing and delivery • Global supply chains • Available prime industrial areas on the fringe of the urban boundary • Competition for road capacity in a fiscally constrained region

  5. Identifying Key Economic Areas • Industrial Employment Thresholds • 3,000+ jobs today • 1,000+ job growth • Types of employment • Manufacturing • Wholesale Trade

  6. Identifying Key Economic Areas

  7. Identifying Key Economic Areas

  8. Identifying Key Economic Areas

  9. Identifying Key Economic Corridors • Travel Shed Evaluation • All Industrial Trips • Key Site Trips • Number of Sites Served • Regional Truck Volumes

  10. Prioritization of Key Economic Corridors

  11. Evaluating Key Economic Corridors • What performance measures matter for freight movement? • Industrial Traffic Volume • Peak Hour Congestion • Duration of Congestion • Travel Time Reliability • 24-hour Corridor Speed Profiles • Travel Time Range • Travel Time Buffer Index • How does performance change in future year forecasts?

  12. Evaluating Key Economic Corridors • Hourly Volume Profile Projections

  13. Evaluating Key Economic Corridors • Estimating Average Congested Link Speeds (vdf functions)

  14. Evaluating Key Economic Corridors • Data Mining Travel Speed Variance (RSME = 0.045)

  15. Evaluating Key Economic Corridors • Developing Predictive Tools (Year 2005 to 2035) I-5 Northbound (North Wilsonville to OR 217) I-5 Northbound (North Wilsonville to OR 217)

  16. Evaluating Key Economic Corridors

  17. Evaluating Key Economic Corridors

  18. Evaluating Key Economic Corridors

  19. Portland Region Economic Corridors Evaluation Report • Congestion on key economic corridors will significantly increase over the next 25 years, degrading reliability • Understanding the location and condition of key economic corridors can help: • Prioritize locations for regional investment to maintain competitiveness for industrial growth • Guide decision making about acceptable performance and design on the regional system: • Development approval along key economic corridors • Compatibility of urban “centers” planning with freight corridor needs
