El trabajo de diseño en el Proyecto de Tren Ligero del Corredor Suroeste se detuvo en 2020 después de que los votantes rechazaran una medida de financiamiento local para múltiples mejoras de transporte. A principios de 2022, Metro, TriMet y la Administración Federal de Tránsito completaron la Declaración Final de Impacto Ambiental (FEIS), y emitieron un Registro de Decisión (ROD) para garantizar que el proyecto sea elegible para futuros fondos federales.
