The January 2009 issue of “Oregon Business”, wrote a cover story on the highly successful bicycle industry which has grown throughout Portland since the advent of bicycle infrastructure.
As we noted from a past interview with Portland’s bike coordinator, Roger Geller, cycling as a main form of a transit has risen to 8% modal share since the advent of bike lanes throughout the city. Seeing the economic development that has sparked from this infrastructure is highly notable and promising for our own city’s future.
