ODOT bike/ped plan open for comment

Not to be confused with the City of Portland’s Bicycle Master Plan, the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) has its own Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan.

Here’s how ODOT describes it:

“Last updated in 1995, the OBPP (they love acronyms!) is part of the long-range, statewide Oregon Transportation Plan. It governs the department’s planning, policy and design requirements for walkways and bikeways. It also serves as a technical, planning and policy resource for others interested in biking and walking.”

According to an ODOT press release, proposed changes to the technical/design section of their plan are up for public comment.

To read the changes and find out how to comment, check out this page on the ODOT website.
