Fair Access for All Oregonians
What does "All Means All" mean?
At ODOT, “All Means All” reflects on our commitment to designing transportation systems, services, and decisions that work for all Oregonians.
We recognize that communities can experience transportation systems differently based on geographic, economic, cultural, physical and other factors. Understanding those differences helps us identify gaps and improve access so all people can benefit from transportation investments and opportunities.
Our approach focuses on shared outcomes for everyone while recognizing that different communities may experience different needs and challenges.
Who we are and what we do
The Office of Engagement works to strengthen meaningful participation, improve access, and help ensure transportation decisions consider the experience and needs of all communities across Oregon.
We are working on this by:
- Supporting workforce practices that create fair access, opportunity and belonging throughout the employee experience.
- Reducing barriers and improving access to contracting, partnership, and economic opportunities.
- Creating meaningful opportunities for people and communities affected by transportation decisions to inform agency work.
- Considering community impacts and transportation gaps as part of planning and decision-making. Committed to serving all Oregonians
Transportation decisions are stronger when informed by the experiences and perspectives of the people and communities we serve. Our goal is not simply to improve systems, but to improve outcomes and access for all Oregonians. Through tools like Community Impact Analysis, ODOT works to understand who benefits, who experiences challenges, and where barriers may exist.
