About the Open House…
Drop by to learn more about this new PDOT enhanced traffic safety markings and signage project planned for the city’s Clinton Street Bicycle Boulevard! The Open House is an opportunity for all interested community members to find out more information. More importantly, the Open House will enable attendees to provide valuable input to the City regarding the types of potential markings and signage designs the community would like to see along the bicycle boulevard. PDOT will be working with a project artist team in order to develop all signage – drop by to meet the artists and provide input on what you might like to see!What is the Clinton Street Bicycle Boulevard Enhancement Project?
The Clinton Street Bike Boulevard Enhancement Project will aim to let all users of the corridor know that they are on a street prioritized for use by cyclists and, by association, other non-motorized users. PDOT hopes to use creative communicative design and art features, such as bold street signage and on-street markings, to communicate the message that the street is a bicycle boulevard to all users of the street – cyclists, pedestrians, and particularly motorists. The outcome should be to make Portland’s most well-utilized bicycle boulevard a more pleasant, safe place to live, bicycle & walk.Want More Information?
