The City of Portland Office of Transportation has SHARE THE ROAD yard signs available to lend to community residents. Signs encourage road users to share the road and to slow down.


You can see pics of the signs and find out how to get one by google searching “portland yard sign lender program.”

All yard signs have “Slow Down!  Set the Pace” messages on one side (see front
cover) and one of three messages on the reverse side.

Slow Down! Look for kids

Look for Bikes  Pass Safely

Stop for Pedestrians

I have been working with Sharon White from PBOT to get 25 signs specifically for Woodlawn. I’d like to get signs to any Woodlawn resident who wants one. I would like to ask that if y’all have friends who live on busier streets (15th, Deakum, or Ainsworth) that want a sign to please contact me at woodlawntrees// @// gmail.com
