  • Portland's 1912 Steel Bridge: Setting the Standard for Multi-Modal Transport
    Portland’s 1912 Steel Bridge: Setting the Standard for Multi-modal Transport BY JIM TALBOT The world’s only known working telescoping dual-lift truss bridge is soon to begin its second century of service to the community. IN THE MID-19TH CENTURY, the Columbia and Willamette Riv- ers carried major seagoing traffic to and from the inland port city Jim Talbot is a freelance of Portland, Ore. As Portland grew to be a major shipping port for technical writer living wheat, lumber, and other commodities, these two major rivers run- in Ambler, Pa. ning through the city presented major obstacles to local travel. By 1853, ferry service began across the Willamette River, but not until 1887 did the first Morrison timber bridge with a wrought-iron swing span cross the Willamette. It was followed a year later by the original Steel Bridge, a double-deck swing-span railroad bridge. Its name derived from the fact that in 1888 steel represented an unusual bridge-building material. The additional bridges that followed contributed greatly to the growth of Portland, which by 1900 had grown to 90,000 inhabitants. A Replacement Steel Bridge Early in the 20th century, the Oregon Railway and Navigation Company, which today is the Union Pacific, and the Southern Rail- road made plans to replace the original Steel Bridge. Although the intent was to carry only passenger and freight trains, the city insisted MODERN STEEL CONSTRUCTION MARCH 2012 ➤ The Steel Bridge, Portland, Ore. engineer John Lyle Harrington, designed the $1.7 million 1912 replacement as a through-truss, double-deck, double-lift steel bridge.

Our application is for Willamette Falls Shared Use Path & OR 99E Corridor Enhancement Project, an Active Transportation Project located in downtown Oregon City. The scope of work is for Project Development, which will include Alternatives Identification & Evaluation, Preliminary Design (30%), Stakeholder Engagement and Environmental Clearances. In 2005 the included McLoughlin Boulevard Enhancement Plan was adopted. This plan completed the Planning Phase as well as Alternatives Identification & Evaluation for the corridor. The City has successfully implemented the first two phases of McLoughlin Boulevard, using this plan. This remaining portion of the McLoughlin Boulevard Enhancement Plan located between 10th Street and the tunnel has been the most complicated to complete as it is interwoven with the OR 99E viaducts. As replacement of the viaduct seems to be falling off any future project lists, Oregon City sees a vital need take a step back and re-evaluate options to complete the remaining critical pedestrian & bicycle gaps along this corridor. In 2005 the plan assumed the viaducts would be replaced in the near future, which would have allowed the cross sections identified in the 2005 plan to be implemented between 8th Street & 10th Street.

Danny Comment With no alternative route available for I-205, we WILL see hundreds if not thousands of Schreiber form cars diverted to using our neighborhood streets to avoid the toll. Large parts of West Linn lack any options for public transit, especially buses or trains, so we lack alternative ways for travel. Many of our streets have no lanes for bikes either, so those are not options for safety. Finally, the biggest negative impact will be on the many families with financial difficulties since they will not be able to afford these tolls. According to many studies, at least 1/3 of the funds raised by the tolls will go to the collection of the tolls themselves.
