Description: The Portland Office of Transportation (PDOT) recently completed work on two Festival Streets, a new experiment that uses traffic calming and unique streetscape features to create a street that can easily be converted to public use on weekends or special events. Here, Ellen Vanderslice (PDOT Project Management) and Lloyd D. Lindley (Urban Designer\/Landscape Architect) explain a few of the street\'s pedestrian features and why it is so important for the surrounding Old Town\/Chinatown community.
