Transportation Inequities
As you may know, Oregon's Department of Environmental quality has placed Employee Commute Option requirements on companies of 100 or more employees. For chapter and verse of the rules see https://secure.sos.state.or.us/oard/displayDivisionRules.action?selectedDivision=1554 and/or check out their Fact Sheet: https://www.oregon.gov/deq/FilterDocs/ECOcommuteFS.pdf
Heidi Beierle with the West Columbia Gorge Chamber is putting the finishing touches on a commute options demand study for the industrial areas out in Troutdale and Fairview. In the process of preparing this study, Heidi became aware of workforce access/transportation inequities that exist in the project study area.
As a potential stakeholder in this conversation, join us as Heidi reviews the results of her study. You can access her study here.
