Washington County Coordinating Committee (WCCC) - October 12th, 2026

The Washington County Coordinating Committee (WCCC) meeting for Washington County, Oregon, held October 12, 2026 (the metadata timestamp is October 13), included a briefing on Oregon transportation funding and updates on the TV Highway transit and safety project. The project is in design, with 30% plans received and a construction estimate of roughly $300 million. The team identified a $40 million legislative funding request and a $14 million local construction match as key needs; it also reported a preliminary value-engineering effort and discussed ways to reduce costs and improve delivery. The presentation cited about $175 million for construction and right-of-way and $33 million in unallocated contingency. No contract award or spending vote on this project was taken at this meeting.

The committee discussed a proposed amendment to Washington County’s MISTIP large project match fund: shifting Hillsboro’s priority from the 185th Avenue MAX overcrossing to the TV Highway transit and safety project, which spans five jurisdictions. About $12.9 million was described as currently unearmarked in the match fund, alongside pending funding requests. Members raised concerns about preserving funds for other projects and the timing of the decision; local agreements and funding commitments are being developed, but no approval vote occurred. The committee also received transportation funding and regional committee updates, including a forthcoming vanpool action plan and a transit study; approval of the July 18 meeting summary was the only vote recorded.
