Parkway Safety Assessment This Week

Highway traffic specialists and stakeholders will take to the Bend Parkway today, Tuesday and Wednesday to access bicycle and pedestrian safety on the busy stretch of highway at the crossing areas. "We have talked about this since the tragic accident that happened there. And we want to get a consensus of opinion about the best thing to do for pedestrian bicycle use on the Parkway as well. You know, it's a very busy stretch of highway. And obviously it has its problems. It’s dangerous." Peter Murphy with ODOT says the three-day audit will have people at different areas different time a day and then at the end, they will meet to discuss their findings and possible remedies.
