While I use them, they are poorly designed. We wouldn't be having this discussion if they had been done better in the first place. No one goes the speed limit and unfortunately its not enforced much

The biggest problem is that when people enter the parkway they do not speed up[ causing a dangerous situation.

Should have been done years ago for safety.

2 many design flaws but, the short off/on accesses on the parkway does move an amount of traffic that's beneficial. If not, they'd be directed back to 3rd st and you know what that's like now-a-days!

Access to certain areas is hard enough w/o closing the few accesses there are.

If people actually drove the speed limit 45mph, it wouldn't be so hazardous. The speed limit needs to be enforced on the parkway.

The entry on to the Parkway need to be improved... That is where the larger problem lies, especially from the safety perspective

Raising tax’s on businesses will make them increase prices and they will have to layoff people

This type of tax will always be passed on to we consumers. Oregonians already pay an income tax. It's another heavy burden on Oregon consumers that will be passed on to us - the increased costs is nothing but a hidden tax.

This is a sneaky way to get sales tax in place and will add as much as 15% to the consumer's cost for retail purchases.

It's a hand out to the rich who can afford to live here only 200 days out of the year.
