Activists (temporarily) take the swing out of TriMet’s swing gates
Activists tried to take the swing out of swing gates.
4/17: Hello readers. 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 when I can and should improve day by day. Thanks for all your support 🙏. - Jonathan Maus, BikePortland Publisher and Editor
Activists tried to take the swing out of swing gates.
Opposed by bike and walk advocates, a major barrier for wheelchair users.
However, the transit agency installed only two out of eight swing gates it had earlier proposed.
Swing gates coming to SE 11th Ave MAX crossings. At least that’s TriMet’s plan.
It’s back to the drawing board for TriMet.
TriMet has a plan to keep you safe from new Orange Line MAX trains.
