10 — Motion to Amend Attachment D and add a budget note to improve SW Trails The Southwest Trails system is an important connection for our community given the geography of Southwest Portland. Currently the key walking route along the 4T Trail from the OHSU Waterfront campus to the upper OHSU and VA campus is in need of improvements. This alternate route was made possible by the 2024 completion of the rapid flashing beacon crosswalk at Naito and allows pedestrian connections between the upper and lower campuses. This access is important for those who cannot afford to purchase a tram ticket and on Sundays when the Tram is not operating. PBOT will develop a proposal for this project and identify the funding required to make the necessary improvements. Council directs PBOT to bring a report outlining their findings to the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee by January 1, 2026.
