This Walkshop will tour attendees through PSU Better Block projects in Old Town. All of these projects were studied by a mix of PSU Urban Planning and Engineering students to then see them implemented by PBOT. Projects like Better Naito, 3rd/2nd avenue bike lanes & crosswalks, Ankeny Plaza, Burnside Bridge bus lane & protected bike lanes, etc. We will discuss how the students have played a crucial role in promoting innovation amongst agency staff.
