Talk:MAX Yellow Line

:Template:MAX Yellow Line Good map, but does anybody object if I reorder it to go North-South? -Pete (talk) 23:17, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

:That would make more sense to me too. I think it was made that way to correspond to the table in the article; should that be changed too? Is there a requirement to start at the city center and move outward for these types of articles? --Esprqii (talk) 23:25, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Quick question about the planning process for the Yellow Line: was an alternative in the Interstate 5 right-of-way proposed during the EIS process? The FTA's Annual Report on Funding Recommendation for 2005 seems to [https://www.transit.dot.gov/sites/fta.dot.gov/files/docs/FY05_Annual_Report_on_Funding_Recommendations.pdf show an I-5 alignment] (p. 79), but I think it could be a simple mapping error on their part.

: I think it's wrong. The I-5 alignment was considered during studies for the second or third iteration of the South–North project (which both failed). The Interstate MAX project chose Interstate Avenue from the get go. --Truflip99 (talk) 00:10, 5 March 2019 (UTC)

I'm not sure how I'll fit it into this article or if I even will, but here's an interesting read about the history of the neighborhood surrounding the Interstate MAX published by TriMet. Saving it here for potential use.

While looking for something else, I came across published info. giving the Yellow Line's full length – including the section that had already existed for the Blue and Red Lines – when it opened, in 2004. But for now, I have not added it to the article, since it differs from the line's current overall length, following its 2009 route change that move it onto the Portland Transit Mall. The source{{cite news |author= |title=Systems News |date=June 2004 |magazine=Tramways & Urban Transit |page=229 |location=UK |publisher=Ian Allan Publishing |issn=1460-8324}} gives an overall length of 11.6 km (7.2 miles), "of which" (sources states) 9.3 km (5.8 miles) was "new construction".
