NE Broadway poised for transformation as city eyes major updates
Federal money and a PBOT paving project have lined up to create a golden opportunity.
4/25: 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. See this post for the latest update. I'll work as I can and I'm improving every day! Thanks for all your support 🙏. - Jonathan Maus, BikePortland Publisher and Editor
Federal money and a PBOT paving project have lined up to create a golden opportunity.
The comment deadline is Friday, Oct. 6.
The May 9-15 design will add temporary crosswalk markings and traffic islands as well as in-street cafe seating.
Dozens of volunteers are now meeting weekly to plan temporary human-friendly makeovers of Northeast Broadway and the Burnside Bridge.
You ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
The city is rapidly writing the plans. The question is when and whether anyone will actually build them.
How do you think they did?
Of the 81 projects on the map above, 62 would go in at or east of 82nd Avenue.
More than anything else in central Portland’s bike network, commercial corridors are the missing links.
