7:45 TriMet: Update on Cedar Mill Shuttle Service and Line Changes

Faced with a large revenue shortfall, Tri-Met is reacting by cutting low-performing routes. Steve Kautz, Service Program Manager for TriMet, along with other TriMet staff will visit us again this month to give an update on their service proposals for:

  • Changing the Cedar Mill shuttle to a fixed route
  • The proposal to discontinue low-volume Line 60-Leahy Road and the potential to cover some portion of it as part of the new shuttle route.

The goal of this meeting is to have the situation further explained to us as a result of TriMet’s outreach and study, and for all concerned to put their heads together to find the best alternatives possible.

Washington County's unincorporated areas are represented by Citizens' Participation Organizations or CPOs. CPO 1 is the organization that represents Cedar Mill and Cedar Hills citizens' interests with Washington County government.

The CPO 1 Friends website is temporarily out of service due to technical issues. We expect to have it back up, albeit in a different form, before long.

The Google Map of the CPO 1 "Connecting Our Neighborhoods" trails project is available here. You need to have a free Google account to be able to edit the map. Once you click on the link, be patient -- it takes a few minutes to load completely.

The Connecting Neighborhoods Subcommittee has begun meeting on the third Wednesday, 7:30 pm at Cedar Mill's Leedy Grange Hall. Sign up to stay informed about our activities.

OSU Extension Service provides the CPO newsletters. You can read them here, and sign up to receive the free newsletter by mail or email here.

If you select to receive the newsletter by email, you will receive a short monthly notice that the latest newsletter is posted on the web.  Please consider the email option as it saves the CPO program money on postage.
