由于选民否决了当地一项为改善多个交通项目提供资金的措施，西南走廊轻轨项目 (Southwest Corridor Light Rail Project) 的设计工作于 2020 年暂停。2022 年初，Metro、TriMet 和联邦交通管理局 (Federal Transit Administration) 完成了最终环境影响声明 (FEIS) 并发布了决策记录 (ROD)，以确保该项目未来有资格获得联邦资助。要查看这些文档，请访问 Metro 的项目网站。
Regional modeling estimates that there will be 37,500 weekday trips on the Southwest Corridor Light Rail by 2035. Projected ridership and how people get to the stations affects how each station is designed. Below is information on how the project accounts for different ways of getting to the stations.
Walking represents a sizable portion of how people are expected to access stations. To facilitate safe and comfortable walking connections, the project will contribute to a more fully connected, safe street network, with design treatments such as new mid-block crossings and sidewalks.
While biking is not accounted for in the regional ridership model, providing bike facilities is an important part of the project. Additionally, stations will accommodate secure locations to store and park bicycles with more space dedicated at stations demonstrating greater biking demand. The number of bike parking spaces at each station will be determined later in the design process.

Connecting community assets and neighborhoods
With the addition of Southwest Corridor Light Rail service, TriMet will make changes in the bus network to maximize ridership, create new connections and minimize duplication. For purposes of ridership modeling, planners have made assumptions about potential bus service changes, based largely on TriMet’s Southwest Service Enhancement Plan (SW SEP). About a year prior to beginning Southwest Corridor Light Rail service, TriMet will engage riders in a public process to revisit these assumptions and confirm a bus service plan that serves future needs while minimizing service duplication.
Potential bus network
Park & Ride facilities serve riders traveling from farther distances or from locations without convenient transit service to access the light rail system. Community engagement in Spring 2019 helped define the currently proposed quantity, locations, and type of Park & Rides. All proposed Park & Ride quantities are subject to further traffic studies and could be reduced in future design refinements.
