Project Area
Why is this project needed?
These improvements are integral to the region’s transportation system. Improving this route will yield immediate, noticeable benefits for people who drive, bike, walk and take transit through some of the fastest growing and most underserved communities in the Metro area. This project will:
- Connect underserved communities. This project will provide better north-south mobility and access for people who live on the outer east side. It will also serve a high number of people of color and lower income communities.
- Provide needed multimodal connections. The project will create a continuous route between the Clackamas and Columbia rivers and will include improvements for people who walk, ride bikes, and take transit.
- Serve growing communities. The C2C project will support other planning efforts in the area and will provide better access new jobs that are expected to come into the area over the next 20 years. It will also help serve the needs of Happy Valley - the fastest growing city in Oregon - and which is expected to grow 84% by 2040.

What will the project do?
The C2C project is a collection of previously planned and vetted projects that have been identified in city, county and other local plans.The C2C Corridor Plan will create a consistent, coordinated, multi-jurisdictional transportation plan that focuses on improvements for all modes along the 181st/182nd/190th/172nd corridor, connecting Interstate 84 in Multnomah County and Highway 212 in Clackamas County.
Specifically, this project will:
- Identify projects that should be included in Metro’s Regional Transportation Plan.
- Coordinate policy and project recommendations and conceptual street designs that should be included in each jurisdiction’s transportation system plans.
- Seek agreement from elected officials on how to prioritize projects.
- Identify the order of investments along the corridor.
- Target upcoming funding opportunities.
Who is involved?
The C2C Corridor Plan is a partnership project led by Gresham, with close involvement from Happy Valley, Portland, Multnomah County, Clackamas County, Metro, and ODOT.
What has happened?
The project has completed Phase 1 and is conducting public engagement as part of Phase 2. During Phase 2, the first Online Open House was held to collect community comments. The C2C Steering Committee (made up of elected representatives of Happy Valley, Gresham, Clackamas County, and Multnomah County), then met twice to discuss community comments and input to help create the final plan.
What is happening?
An online listening session will be held on Thursday, September 10 from 6-8 pm via Zoom. Click here on September 10 to attend.

Process Phases
PHASE 1 (November 2019–March 2020)
Phase 1 pulled together previously planned and vetted projects from area transportation system plans and from the SE 172nd Avenue/ SE 190th Avenue Corridor Management Plan.
PHASE 1A (March–June 2020)
During Phase 1A, the project was paused to align C2C priorities with the "Get Moving 2020" regional investment measure. Public engagement also paused until Metro confirmed the contents of the investment measure, including which elements of the C2C project would receive funding.
PHASE 2 (early June–September)
The current phase will determine which projects to complete in what order, and will seek input from the project’s Steering Committee (elected officials from Gresham, Happy Valley, Clackamas County and Multnomah County) and the general public—via online events due to COVID-19. Its results will become the draft C2C Corridor Plan. This plan will be the roadmap for cities and counties to seek funding and complete projects.
ADOPTION
The final phase will run from October 2020 through March 2021. Counties and cities will hold public hearings to adopt the C2C Corridor Plan in their transportation system plans.
Packages Overview
Project Criteria
All of the identified projects are located directly on, intersect, or substantially impact or support the C2C Corridor. The investment packages are groups of projects that were selected based on:
- Whether they are included in the Metro Regional Investment Measure.
- How critical they are to establishing a multimodal C2C mainline.
- How likely they are to be funded and/or constructed by development frontage improvements.
- Evaluation scores.
Learn more about how the Investment Packages were created.
Creating Packages
Establishing a complete multimodal C2C mainline is the highest priority for the corridor. Thus, mainline projects proposed to be either partially or fully funded by Metro Regional Investment Measure were identified as Package #1.
Second, remaining projects on the C2C mainline were evaluated for their potential to be funded and/or constructed through new development. Projects that were less likely to be funded by development and more likely to need to be capital projects were identified as Package #2.
The highest score capital projects were collected into Package #3 since these projects will likely be needed to support future development along 172nd Avenue and the 172nd-190th Connector which are included in Package #4.
While some projects could be funded by new development, the implementation and success of other projects in the region depend on the mainline, and thus the C2C mainline projects with development projects would need to be constructed soon after. These projects were designated as Package #4.
The remaining projects were sorted by their likelihood to be driven by development and their respective evaluation scores. Those likely to be capital projects (not funded directly through new development) were sorted by score, with the highest score projects being included in Package #3, medium score projects in Package #5, and lower score projects in Package #6.
Projects that were not critical to the mainline and that were likely to be constructed through new development were placed in the last set of investment packages, with higher scored projects in Package #7 and lower scored projects in Package #8.
