This letter requests that a proposed Walker Road Pedestrian/Bike Bridge project in Beaverton, Oregon be retained as a top priority for funding from the Federal Stimulus Package. It notes that for eight years the neighborhood association has worked to improve safety on this section of roadway where pedestrians and cyclists currently have to dangerously cross between narrow vehicle travel lanes. The bridge would provide an alternative crossing structure and improve safety and livability. Support for the project is listed from various community groups in the area.
