Summary |
Thanks to a progressive public transportation portfolio that includes train, streetcar, bus and aerial tram, Portland has become a global model of transit-oriented development (TOD).For more than 40 years, city planners have uniquely integrated transport decisions into urban growth and development efforts. The result, Portland is consistently ranked as one of the country's most liveable cities, boasting a healthy two percent population growth annually -- and the second lowest per capita transportation spending of the 28 largest U.S. metropolitan areas.PRODUCTION DETAILS:Executive Producers: Karena Albers and Tad Fettig.
