Community Groups & Committees

The NTNA Land Use & Transportation Committee is currently inactive. If you are interested in land use or transportation issues, please contact board@northtabor.org. Other active groups include:

T.W.G. (Transportation Working Group) of the P.G.N.A. (Providence Good Neighbor Agreement): This group works with Providence Hospital and representatives from Laurelhurst and North Tabor to improve pedestrian, bike, and TriMet access to the hospital while limiting neighborhood traffic congestion. Meetings are held monthly. If you’re interested in transportation improvements like increased TriMet service, your input is encouraged!

Southeast Uplift (SEUL): Advocates for equitable land use policies and community involvement.

C.U.R.B.S. (Citizen’s United Rebuilding Burnside Safely): Focused on improving East Burnside for all modes of travel. Burnside is designated a High Crash Corridor and an important bikeway and pedestrian corridor. Efforts are underway to modernize Burnside to align with Metro’s Regional Active Transportation Plan. If you’re interested in supporting these efforts, please get involved!

S.R.T.S. (Safe Routes to Schools): Dedicated to improving safe walking and biking routes to schools and parks. Key projects focus on building a “radial network” of safe routes based on the Davis-Everett Greenway, NE 41st, 53rd, and 62nd. Efforts are underway to connect east to Montavilla and south via 58th/57th to Mount Tabor Middle School (MTMS). PPS has endorsed a grant proposal to improve Burnside crossings for students. Volunteers are welcome to help advance this initiative.
