Abstract
The Matthew Knight Arena (Arena) is the new home of the University of Oregon’s basketball
program. Completed in the fall of 2010, the Arena seats 12,800 people and was built
to serve as a multipurpose venue for concerts, lectures, commencement, and other attractions
in addition to basketball games. In winter 2011, the University contracted with the Community Planning Workshop (CPW) to
monitor Arena operations and determine the effectiveness of the mitigation and management
measures described in the Arena Impact Mitigation Agreement (AIMA) and Transportation
Demand Management Plan (TDM). Per the Arena Comprehensive Monitoring Plan requirements the CPW team collected data onsite
at three Arena events (i.e., firsthand observation); from interviews with neighbors, local
businesses, agency personnel, and other stakeholders, as well as from primary data, such as
raw transit ridership, event attendance numbers, and parking citation information.
