The TSP provides city of Bend compliance with the requirements set out in Oregon
Administrative Rule: 660-12. This is otherwise known as the Transportation Planning
Rule (TPR). The TPR requires that the City develop a multi-modal transportation
planning strategy that will reduce principal reliance on the automobile. In 1998, the City
updated its comprehensive planning document: The Bend Urban Area General Plan as a
part of the CityĆ¢ s obligation to meet these requirements. The Bend Urban Area
Transportation System Plan includes other recommended changes to the General Plan
and local land use Ordinances that will further provide transportation planning policy and
codes that will help to fulfill the direction of the TPR. [From the Plan]
