“Every Corner is a Crosswalk” pedestrian safety video

The City of Portland Bureau of Transportation, Portland Police and local pedestrian and bicycle groups released a 3.5 minute animated film about Oregon crosswalk laws. The film is called “Every Corner is a Crosswalk”.

With school just around the corner, this is a great reminder for parents, students, bicyclists and drivers to be aware, respectful and safe.
