Some Eugene residents are concerned that the city’s leaf program puts them at risk, and they’re not going to take it falling down.
The city allows residents to drop their leaves into streets and bike lanes and — according to a story published in Sunday’s Register Guard — some locals want that policy changed because it’s dangerous for bike traffic.
Sound familiar? It should. Many Portlanders have also expressed concern that leaf piles on street shoulders are a safety hazard because they create slippery, dangerous conditions for someone operating a bicycle.
