A SW Bikeways tour of the SW Vermont and Multnomah paths, and the planned Capitol Hwy reconstruction south of Multnomah Village. Our Climate Action Plan says half of vehicles travelling on these streets will be a bike within one decade. Are we designing accordingly? The current and future design details for intersections, driveways, and cross-sections all prioritize car traffic and parking over bike safety and convenience, so how is this going to change? We'll look at some details of how the bikeway or multi-use path is compromised by intersections and driveway crossings. We'll also tour some of the connections and talk about how upcoming projects could best complete the bikeway network. Easy pace, 5-ish miles, end at food and drinks.
