Comments for “Transportation System Plan Update”
-
Crossing closed on one side of street. This means cyclists (and pedestrians) have to cross twice to turn onto Imbrie, or jump across two lanes of traffic and turn with cars.
-
No crosswalk between Cherry and Cornell, this is a very large section of road without a crosswalk, but with TWO large parks, plenty of residential area, and a school.
-
Signal does not detect people on bikes on Grant.

Signal here does not detect bikes.
-
It is difficult to turn left from Cornell to Elam Young on a bike.
-
It is difficult to turn left on a bike in any direction at this intersection, but especially from Cornell onto Century.
-
There is another sunken grate on Shute northbound, just north of Cornell
-
The sprinklers in front of Intel spray across the sidewalk (not just a little) so pedestrians have to walk in the bike lane if they're there when the sprinklers are on.
-
At NW Cornell Rd and Amberglen Pkwy, pedestrians who attempt to cross Cornell are given a walk signal, but they also must contend with cars on Amberglen that have a green light and can turn right (east). This is dangerous because the cars are coming down a small hill and are often paying attention to their green light and not to the pedestrian. Right turns should not be allowed until the walk signal is finished.
-
Disappearing bike lanes. Going west, cyclists have to merge into traffic while heading downhill to cross 217 on Hall. Going east they're relegated to using the sidewalk. Westbound is more dangerous (because of how fast bikes are going), but eastbound causes conflicts with pedestrians on the sidewalk.

Wait? What? I was just on the bike/pedestrian path and it changed direction! I want to keep going along Brookwood, but there is no signal or crossing for me to get across. Help!
-
I would be great if the last train at night would run all the way to Downtown Hillsboro, rather than end at Willow Creek. That's too far to walk in the wee hours of the night and I've seen no less than a dozen other get stranded there the nights that I have.
-
The bus stop bench on the sidewalk takes up valuable pedestrian space on the sidewalk. I seen families with strollers have to either step out into the road or walk on the grass behind the bench when people are sitting there. Can we work with the mall management to push the bench back onto their property?
-
As a cyclist entering this roundabout, it's not clear what to do. It's probably not clear for motorists as to when and where to expect cyclists. Can the signage be updated to clarify? And remember this issue as other roundabouts are added around town.
-
The covered bus stop blocks the view of drivers going south on 9th. Can we help TriMet and Comcast work together to move the stop back onto the Comcast slightly landscaped property?
-
With the expansion of Hillsboro and the increase in population, the red line to the airport needs to be extended to at least the Hillsboro transit center.
-
During high volume traffic hours (morning , lunch time, and evening) the left turn lanes from Evergreen onto 185th are hazardous. The left hand left turn lane on Evergreen dumps you into the lane for 26 west. The right hand lane dumps you into the middle lane of 185th with the majority of cars in both of the left and middle jockeying to get to the right hand lane on 185th to get onto 26 East. I'm truly surprised that there are not more accidents. I am retired and try to avoid this intersection at busy times, but it's not always possible.
-
Orenco Stn Pkwy between Cornell & Brighton is too narrow to accommodate two-way traffic and parking on both sides of the road. Free parking is available, so why not widen the road and eliminate parking on one or both sides?
-
Traffic coming from Butler into Orenco Station is often too fast. Stop signs are needed on Copper Beech. Locals know this hazard and tend to slow or stop before entering or crossing 65th, but drivers coming from Butler don't seem to care. I was almost T-boned at this intersection.
-
Make Orenco Stn Pkwy around Central Park a one-way street. It is too narrow for two-way traffic, and most locals treat the street as a one-way road. This area of Orenco Station has too few stop signs and roads that are too narrow for two-way traffic.

-
Street lights needed on Quatama between Max station and Cornelius Pass Rd, in addition to sidewalks and bike lanes.
-
The speed limit on Cornell between Brookwood and Century Blvd should be reduced from 45 to 35.
-
pavement is bad along this area. needs to be resurfaced!
-
Sidewalks in this area are terrible! Many cracked and raised areas which are trip hazards. Very unsafe for pedestrians, especially elderly people.
