Description

This location, adjacent to the city's largest skate- and disc-golf-park lacks adequate traffic calming devices and crosswalks. In this 35 mph zone, enormous semi-trucks (and Tri-Met busses) routinely exceed the posted speed by up to 15 mph. Dozens (if not hundreds) of pedestrians literally take their lives into their hands daily en-route to and from the park and accompanying Tri-Met transit center. A flashing speed sign, pedestrian crossing signs, signals, street-paint, and a meridian would perhaps impact the problem. Also, ANY indication by Portland Police of even the remotest speed enforcement would be appreciated (and a MASSIVE revenue source).
