Major win for PBOT — and a major win for safer streets.
It’s looking likelier that Portland will get to install 20 anti-speeding cameras on its 10 deadliest streets.
More cameras, lower speed limits. At least that’s the hope.
As Portlanders look for ways to change the culture of streets like Powell Boulevard, state legislators are nearing a vote on a bill designed to do exactly that.
The real promise of speed-detection cameras isn’t that they’d bring in money, or even that they’d impose legal penalties.
Portland’s 10 high-crash corridors would be dotted with radar cameras.
