In open letter to PBOT commissioner, new bike bus coalition pushes for safer school streets
A fledgling coalition of bike bus captains and community leaders want the city to embark on a pilot project to make school streets safer.
Note: I'm currently on a family trip and not working normal hours. Email and message responses will be delayed and story and posting volumes here and on our social media accounts will not be at their usual levels until I return to Portland September 4th. Thanks for your patience and understanding. - Jonathan Maus, BikePortland Publisher and Editor
A fledgling coalition of bike bus captains and community leaders want the city to embark on a pilot project to make school streets safer.
