OR SB1542

Oregon Transportation Commission must develop and maintain a 10-year capital investment plan with target goals for state of good repair, safety, mobility, accessibility, sustainability, and climate

Projects in the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program must be scored and ranked using a methodology that prioritizes safety and preservation projects, with highway capacity expansion projects generally prohibited from ranking ahead of preservation/safety projects when pavement or bridges are below good repair standards

Highway capacity expansion projects cannot be prioritized for funding unless ODOT demonstrates they will not increase projected fatalities, serious injuries, greenhouse gas emissions, or vehicle miles traveled compared to a no-build alternative

Cost-benefit analyses for projects estimated at $15 million or more must be publicly available at least 30 days before commission approval, and must now include opportunity costs and both immediate and long-term (10 and 30 year) travel time savings

ODOT must produce biennial condition reports on highways, and the commission's website must display project rankings, scores, decision matrices, and narrative summaries comparing planned versus actual project costs and outcomes
