My idea to help w speeding: A city-sponsored “neighborhood pace car” program where volunteers get a placard/signage on car saying, “I’m going the speed limit. Are you?” Or just do it w city fleet vehicles. We just need to normalize going slow and folks will chill.

On weekends, expect cars in the Better Naito bikeway
It's allowed. Even if it's annoying.
bikeportland.org
Stephan Segraves@stephan.wtf · 4mo agoSo Portland put in hard curbs on the Naito bike lane under the Burnside Bridge to make it less likely that people would use the lane for parking. Now those people use it for parking and the bikes are basically trapped. Today it’s for close down of the Saturday Market. cc: @bikeportland.org
thanks for being there Brandon! Such a great night and feeling grateful for all the love and support. And the beer! So good. They sold 10 cases and 2 kegs in 5 hours!
Brandon Mullen@brandonmullen.com · 4mo agoShout out to @jonathanmaus.bsky.social for 20 YEARS of Bike Portland!! I feel bad I had a 5pm to blast off to, but got to meet some dope like-minded folks... which, of course, is the point of the weekly Bike Portland Happy Hour. Congrats, JM (and check out the Bike Portland beer!)
going through old photos.. Can you believe this was just normal evening bike traffic on N Williams Ave in 2016? And look how full the bike parking at New Seasons was! work from home really changed so much about our streets.
