Through Gateway Park: What Designing for Local Values Can Do
Gateway Park in Sisters, Oregon shows how a mobility hub can reflect community values and support growth. The project turned a former rest stop into a central point for transit, walking, biking, parking, EV charging, and recreation. Thoughtful design phasing and a careful approach to protecting trees helped the city meet current travel needs while keeping space open for future improvements. It offers a model for communities seeking practical and people centered multimodal access without losing what makes their place unique.
