Map of city of Corvallis bikeway projects currently in the transportation improvement plan Image taken from city of Corvallis website
Tonight at the Corvallis public library from 5:30-7:30 there will be an open house regarding prioritizing neighborhood bikeways
In addition to ordering the routes, the study will try to identify major design aspects earlier in the process

This is vital to making the bikeway actually usable for bike riders at heavy traffic times (and adds another crosswalk on 9th)
I still have concerns about the route’s effectiveness at the crossings on 2/3/4th, but this makes 5th - Kings significantly better

update on local projects: Corvallis is finalizing the design for the Tyler Avenue Bikeway 9th st crossing
adding a light on 9th allows pedestrian and bicyclists to cross, but cars can only turn right into/out of Tyler Avenue

Combined with TTC operational improvements, cumulative time savings to date are 10 minutes (Line 5) and 20 minutes (Line 6) per round trip. Work is ongoing to expand the TSP measures to include rotational signal phasing and full signal retiming to create progressions that support a continuous green wave. This is anticipated for completion by September 2026.
Building on the momentum from the recent efforts to improve transit travel times on the Line 5 and Line 6 corridors, the combined Transportation Services and TTC team will advance a significant expansion of Enhanced Transit Signal Priority throughout 2026 through a combination of new installations and upgrades to existing locations. The program will focus on high ridership bus and streetcar routes, with emphasis on routes that are expected to play a critical role during FIFA World Cup 2026, including both conventional and Enhanced TSP upgrades and additions to the 509 Harbourfront, 504 King, 63/63B Ossington south of Bloor Street, 7 Bathurst Street, 512 St. Clair Avenue, 505 Dundas, and the continued buildout of the 510 Spadina Avenue corridor. Collectively, these planned installations and upgrades represent nearly 50 percent more than the number of signalized intersections equipped or upgraded with TSP in any previous year, reflecting the City's commitment to accelerating delivery through additional temporary consulting resources and strengthened interagency coordination. The following table provides a summary of the TSP implementations planned for 2026 (72 New Locations, for a total of 508).

Fantastic to see the City's Congestion Management Plan call for Enhanced TSP on more corridors!
That's point #1 of the FastTrackTO 10-Point Plan in motion! ✅
It's an exciting start...but we're not done. Let's keep up the momentum #TTCriders!

In amazing transit news: Seattle opened the new extension of their light rail that connects the Bellevue line to the rest of the system
The timing is excellent, as thousands of commuters can now avoid spiking gas prices and ride in style

Chuffed that my 2012 #book on #LondonUnderground #Design has been named by @bigissue.com as one of the top 5 ever on the Tube! Thanks to them and do seek it out if you’ve not seen it: www.penguin.co.uk/books/180387... #TransitSky
Absolutely Patrick!
Single person car use is literally burning the planets precious resources, wasting energy, and polluting it too. (Even electric vehicles are not ideal). Here’s a simple solution: huge investments in #publictransit. Provides « growth » and jobs and services. Win/win. #TransitSky
Extremely impressive switch from polluting #cars to #publictransit in #NYC
#TransitSky
I’m glad to see that there is pressure to right size the project, but advocates need to make sure that happens
They are still adding additional lanes
They will try to pull funding to the interchanges
They will likely Delay the light rail

Did not know about this neat little #peoplemover in #Dallas. Sadly now closed, but a great idea, somehow mishandled so badly they had to shut it down :-( thanks to Jason at @airlineflyer.net for highlighting it. Wikipedia article explains history. #TransitSky
It is extra unfortunate that Oregon Democrats have failed to fund transit & cut investment in bicycling/rail as a fuel crisis begins
There are transportation alternatives Oregon should have invested in, but they took every opportunity to support cars above all

I’m disappointed that we continue to have representatives with these priorities, but I think there is something to be said for the general public’s disinterest around transit funding
Testimony submitted was approximately ~150 pieces, which is not a lot given the scope of the bill
#orleg #transitsky
There is still time to submit testimony to the Oregon legislature and call your representatives
Don’t let them kneecap our rail funding and direct bike registration fee to supporting highways
#orleg #carcentric #amtrak #transitsky #urbanism
Transportation advocate have warned legislators that highway expansion funding is unsustainable and now the that bill is coming due they’re cutting bicycle and train funding to make up for part of it
Please write into your legislators
#orleg #transitfunding #carcentric #bicycling #transitsky
Yeah I agree with @stephenkb.bsky.social here. #WashingtonDC #Metro stations some of my favourites in world. #TransitSky
This isn’t Corvallis specific but if you want to help secure funding for transit please write in
In context of how much highway expansions cost, 3 million is tiny
