@ErikBootsma @Boenau Proper street and x-walk lighting (see image below), widening sidewalls to add bike lanes on the sidewalk and off the street. That way barriers could be added without taking away space from travel lanes. Adding 4-way pedestrian cycle to intersections with high.....

I'm considering a lawsuit against @PortlandGov and @PBOTinfo for repairs to my tires. I'm at the tire shop 3 or 4 tires a month getting plugs in my tires because putting in medians and curbs for unused bike lanes is more important than cleaning the streets.

The line for the 1pm Cast and Crew Panel for The Goonies. @KATUNews @KOINNews @KGWNews @fox12oregon

@PBOTinfo @fox12oregon @PDXFire Oh great, now PBOT is going to put speed humps and other traffic calming techniques on UP rail lines. Maybe medians will help?

@PDXFire is responding to reports of a pedestrian struck by a Union Pacific train near NE 115th and Sandy Boulevard. Expect traffic delays where tracks cross between a minimum of 122nd & 105th avenues. Avoid the area. Follow the thread below for more information.

@shanedkavanaugh I voted but I opted out of ranking my vote and voted for only one candidate.

Portland’s ranked-choice debut causes voter engagement to crater. 1 in 5 who cast ballots chose no one for City Council In east Portland, the city's poorest & most racially diverse quadrant, it was 29%. 11% of residents who voted sat out mayor's race. oregonlive.com/politics/2024/…

Like I said, if you don't want to enforce it, I will gladly do it for you. I'll go out and rent a tow truck this weekend.

So it's @PBOTinfo and @PortlandPolice going to start enforcing parking downtown? If not, I'd be more than happy to do their job. NW Davis St between 6th and Broadway always has homeless people parking their impeding turning buses.

@DetlingFOX13 @fox13seattle It absolutely was avoidable. It looks like 45 people weren't diving for the conditions, which isn't surprising. Washington drivers (especially Seattle and Tacoma area) are terrible drivers. I guarantee most were on their phones too.

“Everybody just started colliding into each other.” This driver telling @fox13seattle he tried to avoid the crash but it was unavoidable. He and his family are okay.

Ranked choice voting is the participation trophy of politics. @OregonRCV @PortlandGov @CommMapps @CommRubio @CommissionerRG @DanRyanPDX #RankedChoiceVoting #dontrankyourvote

@pdxpragmatist @CommMapps All you have to do is use corner lots to bypass red lights. I do it all the time and at high speeds. When someone bitches I tell them to thank @CommMapps. Like 122nd and Powell, just use the shell station if you're going east. If you're going west, use the plasma donation lot.

@CommMapps Bad move. All this will do is create more traffic and increase travel times. This city is already difficult to get around in by vehicle thanks to road diets and bike lanes. Let’s not add fuel to that fire.

@CommMapps You don't care about traffic safety. You only care about bending to special interests, thinking it will get you votes. You're using the life and safety of Portland residents a a political tool.

@CommMapps So your ordinance is another "I hate cars" policy that ignores a major contributor to traffic fatalities......pedestrians? I gave you a Traffic Safety campaign that would have reduced Traffic fatalities exponentially by now, but you chose to ignore me.

@Dan_Christensen @jvegapederson @CommMapps @CommRubio @CommissionerRG @PortlandGov @multco @PDXFire @PortlandPolice @trimet @KATUNews @KOINNews @KGWNews @fox12oregon Having been an emergency vehicle operator, I can tell you that Multnomah County does not give light priority to emergency vehicles. It was a pain in the ass going from Clackamas County that does into Multnomah County.

Most of the bus preempts do not add to a light cycle they just use a few seconds at the start of a light cycle for the bus to clear the lane. Larger intersection where you find this often have sensors for emergency vehicles to give them priority. It has limited impact on traffic. I’ve even had emergency vehicle traveling with me get behind my bus to follow through a light like a bus and bypass traffic speeding their travel up. It’s a complex issue but it often helps emergency vehicles

Why are city and county elected officials making it harder to save your life? @jvegapederson @CommMapps @CommRubio @CommissionerRG @PortlandGov @multco @PDXFire @PortlandPolice @trimet @KATUNews @KOINNews @KGWNews @fox12oregon

@amanda443789 @PDXFire In short, it's a rest for Firefighters that were fighting the fire. During this rest, they're given water and healthy snacks while they have their vital signs (BP, pulse, etc) taken until it returns to normal levels.

@PDXFire What does this mean?

Portland Fire responding to a structural fire near the Whitaker Ponds Natural Area in NE Portland. A large stack of pallets reported up to be on fire with the fire now extending to a tree and a home.

3/3 These stations that are breaking the law need to be held accountable for their blatant disregard for the law. Maybe true Oregonians need to start enforcing the laws that the city and state refuse to enforce.

2/3 I just went to the Chevron on 148th and Stark and the lone employee told me that they don't have attendants for their pumps. Same as the Shell on 122nd and Burnside. The Shell on 122nd and Division will ignore you until you pump your own or leave.

1/3 I'm guessing that neither the Oregon Fire Marshal @OSFM nor the state informed gas stations of the law regarding self-service. I'm running into many in PDX who don't have the required attendants. @KATUNews @KOINNews @KGWNews @fox12oregon

Remember when we taught people how to cross the street safely? @PBOTinfo has abandoned that approach, which is putting people's lives in danger.

May is Asian/Pacific Islander Heritage Month. It's time to bring awareness not only about those cultures but also the hate they endure just by being different. #stopasianhate #Filipino #Asian #PacificIslander #AAPIHeritageMonth #AAPI

You know what would be cool? If @PortofSeattle Police would monitor the bus loading area too. You guys put all of your staff on the north side of the terminal, but nobody to keep the bus loading clear.
