B2 / Collins Comparison

Collins
![Page 23: Steering Committee February 11, - TriMet](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051420/627e40478a91d4222a6a80d1/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
B2

Route preference• Support for B2• Concerns about Collins: impacts to Woods
Creek, park, businesses and homesCrossroads area• Concern about traffic congestion• Desire for safe, comfortable walking and
biking; easy access between MAX, bus, Park & Ride
What we heard
![Page 25: Steering Committee February 11, - TriMet](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051420/627e40478a91d4222a6a80d1/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
New information• No significant cost difference between
Collins and B2• Support column for lower-cost I-5
bridge would trigger additional impacts• Complexity of utility conflicts via Collins
![Page 26: Steering Committee February 11, - TriMet](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051420/627e40478a91d4222a6a80d1/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
