Lloyd to Woodlawn Neighborhood Greenway
Improving safety and comfort for people walking and bicycling in NE neighborhoods, and providing a safe option for people accessing Martin Luther King Jr Blvd.
Overview
The Lloyd to Woodlawn Neighborhood Greenway Project will expand our citywide low-stress walking and bicycling network in Northeast Portland by creating a safe and pleasant place to walk or bike to employment centers, neighborhood destinations, schools, and nearby parks.
The project travels through and along the Elliot, Irvington, King, and Woodlawn neighborhoods, and connects people to popular community destinations such as parks, school, retail and other commercial destinations.
Establishing a neighborhood greenway in the neighborhood is a part of Fixing our Streets initiative, and is built upon recommendations of the citywide Portland Bicycle Plan for 2030 and Transportation System Plan.
