Our Workshops in Portland, Oregon

For over a decade we have been hosting a diverse mix of one to multi-day workshops that train active transportation professionals, sharing the knowledge gained from our research and collaborations with fellow bike-ped organizations. Since 2007 we’ve trained 740 people from 45 U.S. states and 6 countries! Most notably, 45 colleagues from across the border in Canada have traveled to Portland, Oregon for these trainings.

Partner Events

We’ve partnered with many organizations over the years - both locally and nationally - to encourage cross collaboration and knowledge sharing in active transportation: the Association for Pedestrian and Bicycle Professionals (APBP), the Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center (PBIC), the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT), and consulting firms in the city of Portland and WA County metro. Some major events we have provided leadership on:
