How Portland Bureau Of Transportation plans for bike corrals

PBOT installed the first bike corral in September of 2004 (in front of Fresh Pot on N. Shaver at Mississippi). They went two years before installing another one while they worked on funding, policy, and design issues. With all that worked out, since last fall PBOT has put in 15 corrals throughout the city, with the two most recent ones just completed yesterday.

Each time [there is] a new installation, many people wonder how a specific spot was chosen over another. [S]everal business owners have [expressed] frustrated at the time it takes to get one and/or by not even being considered for one at all.
