Challenges

  • Transit Oriented Development works well for communities within ½ mile of transportation hub (3/4 sq miles)
  • Can we use technology to expand this to 2miles (12½ Sq miles), servicing a larger community more cost effectively while maintaining the walkability score

  • Can we use technology to increase safety and security at these transportation hubs thus improving ridership and reducing cost
  • Can we use these transit hubs for cargo, commuters and casual users
  • By making these improvements can we reduce costs so as to service all citizens in Portland and make all communities desirable and walkable reducing displacement

Cargo

  • This last leg of the supply chain comprises up to 28% of the total cost to move goods.
  • The last leg of delivery, ending up at the consumer's home has become more challenging with consumers away from home when deliveries are usually made

  • This is particularly true when families have multiple jobs
  • On demand home delivery, unattended delivery and pick up at transit hub are options for UPS, FedEx, USPS, DHL and others
  • Use same chassis or even re-configure EV for cargo use off peak

Automation

  • Vehicles equipped with safety and crash avoidance today
  • Drivers from community sign up on app similar to Uber
  • Demand pricing ensures plenty of drivers at peak times and off hours
  • Tests routs and operations for future autonamy
  • Test use of special routs: BRT Lanes, vehicle free paths Tilikum Crossing
