--0-1742711210-1083255445=:3902 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sellwood Bridge is controlled by Multnomah County. Laws are enforced on it by Portland Police. The biker walk signs were recently put up b/c county counsel (i.e. the we don't wanna get sued department) was concerned that there could/would be a collision on this seriously undersized path. I've been thinking about just riding on the road way, which is not my favorite choice, but for a faster rider is not unreasonable. Think about how this cuts in half the loop which has been created for the recreational riders who can ride the east side and west side bike esplanades, but now must walk across the bridge to connect the two. Folks who are unhappy with the change to the Sellwood Bridge can write to Matt Larsen, the Multnomah county bike/ped guy. He was in favor of bikers being allowed to ride, but county counsel said no.
