Topic: Getting Around on Foot Action Plan
About the Action Plan: The goal of Getting Around on Foot is to explore priorities for pedestrian improvements throughout the Portland
metropolitan region and to present solutions that can translate to better walking conditions and policies.The Getting Around on Foot Action Plan represents a broad overview of our region’s challenges for walking and needed improvements from the perspective of those who daily navigate our streets. The Action Plan is designed to encourage decision-makers who draft policies and direct investments to design a comprehensive pedestrian network as their priority and to fund its development. We hope community members can and will use this Action Plan as a resource to advocate for more walkable/rollable neighborhoods.
