ODOT needs your input as 53 bike/walk projects vie for $8.5 million

PBOT is still looking for funding to
improve bike access on N. Williams.

What do bike boulevards in Grants Pass, a new trail from Hagg Lake to McMinnville, and the North Williams project have in common? They’re just a few of the 53 projects from all over the state being considered for $8.5 million in grant funding from the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT).

This year, ODOT’s Active Transportation Section is combining two funding programs — the federal Transportation Alternatives Program (formerly Transportation Enhancements, TE) and the ODOT-run bicycling and walking program administered by the Oregon Bicycle & Pedestrian Advisory Committee — into one application process.

Metro has announced the availability of $2.1 million in federal grants through the Regional Travel Options (RTO) program. The money is set aside for both government agencies and non-profits for small-scale projects that promote biking, walking, and taking transit.

In this past, this grant program has funded projects like TriMet’s Open Trip Planner, Sunday Streets in Wilsonville, bike shelters in Forest Grove, walking maps and wayfinding signage in Tigard, and much more.

In an announcement yesterday, Metro included a more detailed list of eligible projects:

  • Training or hiring staff or volunteers to promote transportation options to residents and employees.
  • Helping businesses promote travel options to employees and coordinating outreach activities of partner’s employer and commuter programs.
  • Supporting facilities for bicycling, walking, or running to work.

Thieves unscrewed this staple rack.

Got a few bike theft stories that deserve some attention so I figured I’d round them up.
