Free Bike Zone: the new Free Rail Zone?

Portland AFoot

Now that's a luxury bus

So this guy thinks he's a trimet supervisor now? This is a very clear 'trimet supervisors only' marked area...
I wanna see him get busted!

Now that is a good idea!

Instead, Gustafson thinks perhaps it's time to scrap Free Rail Zone entirely and replace it with a free bike zone (a.k.a. a bike-share system).

"One of the things you could do is get rid of Free Rail Zone, but replace it with a readily available bike [share] program so people could still circulate for 30 minutes at no cost." Or, put another way, "Reshape the fareless zone to put a greater emphasis on carbon-free circulation; and the best free circulation in the Central City probably ought to be on bikes."
