One fine spring day, we took over SW Second Avenue in downtown Portland, Oregon to conduct a little experiment: do bikes or cars make our streets more livable and pleasant?
This full-color poster, produced by Bob Saar for the BTA, commemorates our ground-breaking research. Watch as we take a street crammed bumper to bumper with cars and transport the occupant of each onto -- just a random choice here -- the noble bicycle. Suddenly, the tree-lined street is transformed, and there’s -- look at that! -- room to breathe!
