Project Background
This project upgraded intersections across Portland using tools proven to help prevent pedestrian crashes.
The project focused on intersections with signals because nearly half of pedestrian crashes occur at these locations (see graphic).
We prioritized locations with a history of pedestrian crashes, those on the High Crash Network, and areas with relatively high numbers of lower-income individuals or people of color.
This project included:
- Pedestrian head starts that provide a "WALK" signal seconds before a green light
- Accessible Pedestrian Systemsat more locations with pedestrian head starts to help people with limited vision cross streets safely
- Protected left-turn signals that separate left-turning drivers from people in crosswalks
- Signal head upgrades including larger signal heads and retroreflective backplates for greater visibility
Project Funding
- $800,000 from Fixing Our Streets (2020-2024)
