First, here’s a big thanks to everyone who’s commented so far on my request for the city’s worst intersections for bicyclists.

Commissioner Sam Adams and the Portland Department of Transportation are reportedly going to be compiling a list of bad intersections and possible solutions using input from cyclists. But the beauty of the private sector—versus the government sector—is that we can act immediately, instead of waiting for the bureaucracy to catch up.

So, thanks to the beauty of technology (and the organizational skills of Amy Ruiz), we’ve set up a Google spreadsheet that can be accessed and edited by anyone with a Google account. We’ve already imported the responses from yesterday’s post, but if you haven’t yet responded and you want your voice heard, add it to the spreadsheet. That’ll allow us to sort it in different ways to see what intersections need the most work—and fast.

Special thanks goes to Jonathan Maus and BikePortland.org for partnering with us on this. I think this is a perfect way to show city hall that the cycling community is serious about rolling up its sleeves and helping to fix the problems.
