‘Safe routes to school’ bill moves out of committee with 8-1 vote
Solid support for safe routes in Salem.
4/21: Hello readers and friends. I'm still recovering from a surgery I had on 4/11, so I'm unable to attend events and do typical coverage. I'll post as I can and should improve day-by-day. Thanks for all your support 🙏. - Jonathan Maus, BikePortland Publisher and Editor
Solid support for safe routes in Salem.

Safe streets movement is expanding.
A coalition that wants more funding for safe routes to school shares an inconvenient truth.
A regional program would be available throughout the metro area, not just in Portland.
