Let’s look out for each other this holiday. Do your part so everyone gets home safe. And after you wake up from the festivities, go support Portland’s incredible small businesses on Saturday!

In advance of the holiday, @portlandpolice.bsky.social partnered with multiple agencies across the metro area to promote safe travel through a combination of traffic safety resources and enforcement united to enhance safe driving behaviors and prevent traffic deaths and serious injuries.

Last year, five people were killed in traffic crashes in Portland over the four-day Thanksgiving holiday.

Traffic deaths are unacceptable. We can and must do better.

Between 2019 and 2023, 70% of Portland’s deadly crashes involved alcohol and/or drug impairment. In that time, we lost 206 family members, friends, loved ones, and neighbors.

- Watch for people walking, biking, and rolling — they’re more vulnerable in a crash.
- Slow down. Lower speeds save lives.

- Drive sober and alert.
- If you plan to drink alcohol or use other intoxicants, arrange for a sober driver, request a ride-hailing service or taxi, or take transit (buses, MAX, and Streetcar will run on Sunday schedules).

Just like you plan how you’ll cook your turkey or choose between pumpkin pie and pecan pie (we agree: both), take a moment to plan how you and your loved ones will get home safely.

Thanks for flagging this. Our Temporary Street Use team is aware. They issued a production company this permit for three days of filming. The No Parking sign is for Nov. 21 and Nov. 26, not the entire week. Sounds like filming has been delayed though, so these signs will be removed for now.

You can learn more about our effort to reduce speeds on cut through routes at www.portland.gov/transportati...

These projects are funded by Fixing Our Streets, the local 10-cent gas tax that was approved by voters in May 2016, May 2020, and again in May 2024. Learn more about Fixing Our Streets at www.portland.gov/transportati...

To choose routes, PBOT developed an evaluation matrix combining things like automobile speeds and volumes, policy considerations like priority safe routes to school corridors, and neighborhood impacts. Streets with the highest speeds & traffic volumes in areas of highest needs were prioritized.

This project is funded with $600,000 from Fixing Our Streets and $275,000 from Civil Rights Education and Enforcement Center (CREEC). The Fixing Our Streets $0.10 per gallon fuel tax was approved by voters in May 2016, May 2020, and again in May 2024. www.portland.gov/transportati...

In addition to the new sidewalks, we’re removing the existing temporary transit platform, updating 3 curb ramps to be ADA-compliant, building a curb extension at the northeast corner at SE 80th Avenue, & installing a sump maintenance hole at the intersection of SE 81st Avenue and Washington Street.
