Final Review Committee
Modal Committees
The Oregon Transportation Commission is required to solicit project recommendations from the State Aviation BoardOregon Economic & Community Development Department and the FreightPublic Transit and Rail Advisory committees.
 
Modal committees met in January and February.

Region Committees and Super ACTS
Regional Committees
Since HB 2278 calls for allocating a percentage of the funds by region, the OTC will also solicit recommendations from the state’s Area Commissions on Transportation. Because the Portland metro area does not have an ACT, the OTC convened and solicited recommendations from a specially created Portland area committee.
 
Information about ACTs is posted on the ACT Web page. The ACTs ConnectOregon II related meetings happened in March and April.
 
The Region 1 special review committee and Super ACTs met in April. (Super ACTs are representatives from each region's Area Commissions on Transportation.)
