An examination of speed limits on one of the most high profile bikeways in Portland.
Talked about for over two decades, the crossing will connect the Steel Bridge bike path to the Flanders greenway.
It’s worth taking time to understand why Better Naito matters.
A great example where the sum is greater than its parts.
It’s allowed. Even if it’s annoying.
“This is great time to have a conversation about what we want.”
It’s just one less week; but it still stings.
Options on the table would take space from Waterfront Park.
“This was the largest gathering to support a bike lane in Portland, period.”
It’d create a much more continuous low-stress bikeway network through the central city.
“Bureaucrats did not build Portland — activists did.”
Some Portlanders see this as a one-time chance to grab the public imagination.
