The Portland Bureau of Transportation's new vision for a 1.5-mile stretch of Northeast 102nd Avenue includes one traffic lane in each direction, plus a center turn lane, a bike lane in each direction and painted on-street parking.
The street currently has two vehicle lanes in each direction.
After collecting data on the initial changes, the city may add permanent concrete pedestrian refuge islands in four to six locations, and build sidewalks and curb ramps.
This messed up driver's turning left onto 102nd. There is now a barrier preventing left turn into middle lane. You now have to wait for it to be clear in both directions.
It's all part of Portland's continuing War on Cars.
