The Transportation Committee acts as a forum in the community for improvement of the transportation system in SW Portland in all its modes: auto, pedestrian, bicycle, transit, even freight. More specifically, the committee: • Lobbies the city for infrastructure improvements for the above transportation modes. • Works with neighborhoods to resolve local problems like speeding and inappropriate speed limits. • Supports the community in infrastructure planning projects like the Barbur Streetscape Plan and Capitol Highway Plan. • Participates in city and regional transportation system planning like the city’s Transportation System Plan and Metro’s Regional Transportation Plan. • Recommends actions and positions, as appropriate, to the SWNI Board. Meetings are held the third Wednesday of the month at 7 PM in the Multnomah Center, 7688 SW Capitol Hwy. Contact Leonard Gard: 503-823-4592 or Leonard @swni.org
