Big upgrade to commercial stretch of Barbur looks likelier as Metro rejects OHSU tunnel
Long-term plans are falling into place for a federally-subsidized biking and walking upgrade.
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
Long-term plans are falling into place for a federally-subsidized biking and walking upgrade.
There’s a chance to completely rebuild one of Portland’s most car-oriented arterials into a world-class facility, with the federal government paying for half of it.
A route along Barbur could mean big changes for that street, but a tunnel beneath Marquam Hill wouldn’t.
Tigard voters just threw a wrench in a plan to improve biking in the suburbs southwest of Portland.
