Happy #volunteerappreciationweek! We could not have pulled off Streets Alive last year without the dedication of over 50 volunteers who worked up to 40 hours a week or got up at 4 am the day of to install the demonstration projects. Here is local bass guitar 🎸 legend, Ronnie Ontiveros, spraying our bike stencil for protected bike lanes. #streetsalivehr #hoodriver #volunteer #demonstrationproject #tacticalurbanism #openstreets A couple of us gathered with @adamscreekcohousing and Principal Brent at the Middle School to discuss the vision of a “Eugene-Montello” neighborway that would make a calm and safe biking and walking route from Serpentine on the east side to Rand and beyond to the west. People would be prioritized and cars would be considered guests on a neighborway. #streetsalivehr #neighborway #bikeboulevard #hoodriver Ladies of Hood River storm ODOT! Kathy Fitzpatrick, Cindy Wallbridge and Megan Ramey met with Maria Sipin of @oregon_dot to strategize on short and long term demonstration projects for Streets Alive and The Heights. This next year could be transformative for waking and biking! #streetsalivehr #demonstrationproject #tacticalurbanism #openstreets #completestreets Picked up our 2019 route plans from City Hall to present to @oregon_dot tomorrow! Our demonstration projects duration is timed with the new May Street school opening through National #walkbiketoschool day. #streetsalivehr #demonstrationprojects #tacticalurbanism @saferoutespnw Scheming on our 2019 route and demonstration projects is well underway. Here is the Taylor-Pine Neighborway. What is a neighborway? Neighborways are low-volume streets that have been optimized for bicycle and walking travel through pavement markings, signage, traffic calming and intersection crossing treatments. Neighborways (also called bicycle boulevards or neighborhood greenways) are shared roadway facilities that will be comfortable and attractive to people with a wide range of abilities and ages but are inconvenient as through routes for automobiles. This one was chosen for the opportunity to provide a safe connection across 12/13th for the Middle and May Street schools. We have been invited by the city and @oregon_dot to present these ideas implementation that would stay up for up to 11.99 months ;) #streetsalivehr #hoodriver #amateurplanner #demonstrationproject #tacticalurbanism #popupbikelane #neighborway #neighborhoodgreenway #bikeboulevard Yay, a locally owned pet 🐶 🐱 supply shop in walking or biking distance in The Heights! Welcome, @dogriverpetsupplies! #streetsalivehr #shoplocal #theheightshr #petshop 2 things to love ❤️ about winter in Hood River: the indoor farmers 🥕market at The Ruins and the nice samaritan who cleared the ice ❄️ off most of the 2nd street stairs. #streetsalivehr #hoodriverfarmersmarket #wintermarket #hoodriver #2ndstreetstairs Snow ❄️ day! Walking or biking to your local market for provisions may be the best (and most fun) way today. We also heard a rumor that @dirtyfingersbikes is bringing out the snow bike to Jackson at 3pm today. #streetsalivehr #snowday #hoodriver @farmstandinthegorge #farmstand 6-12+” expected tonight through Monday=seize the sunny 😎 Saturday and shovel your sidewalk! Here is a slideshow of tips we cobbled together from @familyhandyman and PhantomShovel (twitter): 1) don’t wait, 2) cooking spray, 3) DIY de-icer, 4) blunt side of an axe or garden spade to break up ice and 5) all else fails, lay down a tarp and pull it up after the event. #hoodriver #streetsalivehr #shovel #shovelingsnow #shovelyoursidewalk #snow If you’re headed into Portland and want to work, read or simply gaze out the window at the beautiful, snow-covered ❄️ 💦 Gorge and waterfalls, we recommend the Columbia Gorge Express 🚌 or CAT shuttle with a bike 🚲 rack on front so you can giddy up on arrival. #streetsalivehr #hoodriver #transit #columbiagorgeexpress #cattransit @oregon_dot @columbiaareatransit #bikesonbuses
