How to Get Involved

This project will involve residents, business owners, and other stakeholders in Portland. There are a variety of upcoming opportunities for you to participate in, which are listed below.

One of the barriers for pedestrians and bicyclists is Naito Parkway.

March 18, 2009 Open House The City of Portland held a public open house from 5-7 p.m. Wednesday, March 18, 2009 at Umpqua Bank for the Gibbs Street Pedestrian Bridge Project. The purpose of the open house was to present the design of the bridge, the landscaping plan, construction phasing, and construction impacts. Open house materials are available on the Meeting Materials page.

October 7, 2008 Open House Around 100 people attended the October open house. The purpose of the open house was to present the Citizen Advisory Committee’s recommended bridge concepts and gather input about the acceptability of this concept and design aspects that the community would like to see considered as design is advanced. Open house materials are available on the Meeting Materials page.

Web Survey (open May 15 through June 15) The online survey will help the project team understand your priorities and preferences for the Gibbs Street Pedestrian Bridge. Over 200 people took the survey (read the summary for more details).

June 25, 2008 Open House The first project open house was held on Wednesday, June 25 at the Cedarwood School. Over 70 people attended, learning more about the project, reviewing potential design concepts for the pedestrian bridge, and providing input to the project team. All of the display boards that were shown during the open house are available on the Meeting Materials page.
