Guide to
Bicycling in Portland, Oregon
Portland is a leader for a bike friendly city. For example, BIKETOWN was started in 2016 and allows riders to use bikes at over 100 stations across downtown and several neighborhoods. If you just need to make a quick trip across town then using these rentals by the minute bikes might be your most fun and equitable option.
Portland hosts many bicycling events and even hosts a Providence Bridge Pedal once a year where the major bridges are closed to traffic so people can bike across 7 bridges. Thousands of people participate in this family event each summer. Portland has bridges that are just for pedestrians and cyclists and there are future plans to continue in this effort.
Gibbs Street pedestrian and cycling bridge connects the Lair Hill neighborhood with the South Waterfront area was finished in 2012.
Tilikum Crossing Bridgeis the largest car free bridge in the United States. This amazing bridge was part of an almost 1.5 billion dollar light rail project. The bridge connects to an already in place infrastructure providing over 319 miles of bikeways throughout the city.
Future Plans
Flanders Crossing is a active pedestrian and bicycle bridge planned for over I‐405 at NW Flanders Street in Portland. The bridge is required to provide the residents of the NW District and the Pearl District a safer active crossing over I‐405. Construction will begin in 2019 or 2020.
