Abstract
This Philomath Transportation Systems Plan (TSP) contains a 20-year transportation systems plan for the
Philomath area. It contains plans for the different transportation modes in Philomath to meet state planning
requirements in the Oregon Transportation Planning Rule.
The review of existing plans identified several issues to be addressed in this plan including determining the future
population (transportation demands), a future street network and the future footprint for US 20lOR 34 (wider twoway
streets, a bypass or one-way couplet) through downtown Philomath. As part of the public involvement
process there were six goals with a number of objectives established for the TSP. The six goals are as follows:
1. Relieve increasing traffic congestion on US 20lOR 34.
2. Improve traffic circulation and safety throughout the city.
3. Promote increased use of alternative modes.
4. Develop a master plan that defines future street locations.
5. Provide alternate routes to deter truck traffic in the downtown core and residential neighborhoods.
6. Integrate this transportation system plan with other land use planning projects in Philomath. [From the Plan]
