Let the Ten Toe Express Get You WalkingWalking for short trips is a great transportation option that can improve your
health too! Research indicates that walking can lower your risk for diabetes,
heart disease and high blood pressure, increase bone density, and improve
mental health.
Our Ten Toe Express walking program promotes the
transportation and health benefits of a more active lifestyle.
Launched in 2004, the Ten Toe Express has become one of the
cornerstones of our SmartTrips program.
This year the program returns with more amazing
neighborhood walks happening on Thursday evenings at 6pm
and Saturday mornings at 9am through September. These
walks are for everyone — typically 3 to 4.5 miles — and include tours of areas as
diverse as Hillsdale and Multnomah Village, Historic Old Town or the Jade District.
This year we even venture into Milwaukie on the Garthwick and the New Sellwood Bridge Loop walk.
Watch your mailbox for the SmartTrips Order Form and be sure to order the
walking maps, information and tools you need to get out and get active. Or go
online to order today at portlandsmarttrips.org. Then make a plan to join us
and meet new friends on these great walks.
Walking is man’s best medicine.

Portland Vision ZeroOne death on our city streets is too many.
Portland families
deserve safe streets
on which to walk, bike, operate
mobility devices, access transit,
and drive. The Portland Bureau of
Transportation (PBOT) aims to make
our transportation system the safest
possible and move toward zero traffic-
related fatalities and serious injuries
in the next 10 years. This effort is called
Vision Zero.
Although Portland’s traffic fatality rate
is among the lowest of the 50 biggest
cities, the number of pedestrians,
bicyclists and motorists killed on our
roadways each year has remained flat
over the last 20 years. During that time,
an average of 37 Portlanders died in
traffic collisions annually, including
11 pedestrians, 2 bicyclists and
24 motorists.
PBOT is committed to developing
a multi-faceted safety strategy
including street design, traffic
enforcement and education to realize
our vision. You can read more about
Portland’s Vision Zero effort at
visionzeroportland.com.
Experience the Joy of Family Riding!Portland is a great place for family riding.
A supportive community and a city
crisscrossed with miles of bikeways in the form of dedicated lanes,
neighborhood greenways and multi-use paths make it easier than you’d
think to get out and enjoy the breeze in your face and the joy of riding
together as a family.
Our Family Biking Guide is a how-to manual to help you navigate all
stages of family biking — from pregnancy all the way to getting your older
kids ready to ride indepen dent ly to school. Be sure to order your copy
using the SmartTrips Order Form or online at portlandsmarttrips.org.
Thanks for the free transportation materials. Read through them all yesterday evening. Looking forward to trying out some of the walks and taking the #19 bus to downtown Portland.

YOU OPTIONS
You Can Help End Distracted DrivingDistracted driving occurs any time you take your eyes off the road, your hands off the wheel and your mind off the primary task of driving safely. Texting,
grooming, eating or drinking, talking to
passengers, reading a map or using a
navigation system are all distractions that
increase your risk of being involved in a crash.
Texting is the most alarming distraction
because it requires visual, manual and
cognitive attention from the driver. Sending or
reading a text takes your eyes off the road for
5 seconds. At 55 mph, that’s like driving the
entire length of a football field blindfolded.
Oregon law prohibits texting and use of handheld cell phones for all drivers with the
exception of police, emergency responders
and drivers in emergency situations. Drivers
under the age of 18 are prohibited from using
cell phones, texting devices and other hand-
held or hands-free wireless electronic devices.
The best way to end distracted driving is to
educate yourself about the danger it poses, and
share this information with friends and family!
TRANSIT TO TRAILS: TriMet is your connection to nature in the city
The Portland metro area has more than 10,000 acres of
parks and natural areas. Whether you’re new to Portland
or just want to explore new areas
beyond your neighborhood, we invite you to
leave the car at home and take TriMet to
enjoy our bounty of outdoor beauty.
Have you been to Kelley Point Park?
This 104 acre park is located at the
confluence of the Columbia Slough and
Willamette and Columbia rivers in North
Portland and offers both paved and
unpaved trails meandering through black
cottonwood forests.
The Springwater Corridor is a 20-mile
multi-use paved trail extending from inner
Southeast Portland to Boring, Oregon.
Following an old railroad right-of-way,
the trail has many entry points accessible
by bus or MAX.
Tryon Creek State Natural Area in Southwest Portland, the only State
Park within the city limits, offers 14 miles of hiking, biking and equestrian
trails. Find directions to all these parks and more at trimet.org and
connect to nature in the city without the traffic and parking hassles.
Thank you so much for all the maps, information and pedometer! I was a bit overwhelmed. It’s a wealth of knowledge and opportunities. I’m slowly getting acquainted with all the transit options. Now I feel more empowered. Much gratitude for the package of goodies!
