Re: [trafficsafety] this Thursday: traffic safety action on SE Stark by 26th

If you ever do any far to the south, there's one spot just outside Portland (in Milwaukie) that really needs some attention: SE 17th & McLoughlin.  Lots of Portland Springwater commuters ride through this intersection on their way up to Sellwood, and it could really use some attention.  Recent "improvements" have improved the traffic flow for cars, but the intersection is totally inadequate for cyclists.

 

I don't have time right now to organize an action there, but I'd definitely show up.

Hi all,

I'm planning to make this a monthly event- Third Thursday of the month.
When talking to the press I mentioned 40th and Belmont for the March
rally, just 'cause I had to think quick.  Perhaps if we can get enough
people to show up we could split up and have a group walk down 39th to
Hawthorne.

I hope you all will send suggestions for locations, and maybe help with
some organization.
