This seems to not be based on safety at all and is probably Mapps and Williams spending money PBOT doesn’t have because of complaints by business owners that are not based on data.

Goddamnit, Portland. I’m so glad I chose not to move there. I live in Salem instead, where the insanity is at least a little more removed from every day life.
Dude, Salem doesn’t have any protected bike lanes.
This is the craziest take I’ve seen in years. Salem less insane in any way than Portland?
