Program Background

Sidewalks to Schools is a genuine community initiative. Parents, neighbors, and organizations from across Portland -- and especially those most affected by the lack of safe pedestrian facilities for kids -- came together with Oregon Walks to advocate for PBOT's collaboration on this endeavor. These communities were thrilled when PBOT decided to join in for a transformative impact on Portland's sidewalk infrastructure leading to schools. PBOT and Oregon Walks applied for a Portland Clean Energy Fund (PCEF) Collaborating for Climate Action grant and were awarded $20.6 million in December 2024.
