East Portland Sidewalk Construction 

The Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT) will build several priority sidewalk infill projects with $8 Million for sidewalks on arterial streets in East Portland (generally east of I-205).  The sidewalk projects to be built were identified through the East Portland in Motion (EPIM) effort, a 5-year implementation strategy for active transportation.
