PDOT reveals potential route, details of Sunday Parkways
Potential Sunday Parkways route.
The City of Portland’s Transportation Options division has taken a step forward in their quest to pull off a ciclovia-type event — which they call “Sunday Parkways” — in Portland by next summer.
The event is being modeled after a successful program in Bogota, Colombia which shuts down 113km of major roads to motorized vehicles and draws 1.5 million citizens into the streets every Sunday.
Yesterday, an options staffer sent an email sent to the Chairs of several neighborhood associations in North Portland to schedule a meeting to garner feedback about the idea.

The folks behind the North Portland Greenway Trail are some of the hardest working advocates I’ve ever come across.
They are constantly doing whatever they can to share their vision for a new riverfront trail that would connect the Eastbank Esplanade (at the Steel Bridge) to Cathedral Park in St. Johns.
O’Donnell tragedy sparks “And we Bike” safety campaign

The death of 66 year-old Timothy O’Donnell last June in Washington County continues to spark activism over safety concerns on rural roads.
The tragedy helped shine a light on bike safety during the last legislative session in Salem and was a key ingredient in the passage of the Vulnerable Roadway Users Bill. His death also spurred his family to create a memorial fund that is being administered by the Bicycle Transportation Alliance (BTA).
Now, a coalition of advocates and community groups — including the BTA, the Washington County Bicycle Transportation Coalition, the Bike Gallery, and Portland Velo — have launched, “And we Bike”, which they describe on their newly launched website as, “an effort to increase awareness of these serious safety issues.”

The new, double-wide bike lane on SE Madison Ave that I reported about last week is now fully complete.
The new markings include side-by-side bike lane symbols to denote the passing lane and skip-striping both where the lane widens (and then narrows) and to separate the slow and fast lanes.
