I got stuck once while in Bend, but I try to avoid going to Bend whenever possible.

They send the trains through during the most inconvenient times. Between 645 and 8am, 11am and 1pm, and 430pm to 6pm. Busiest times of day for Reed Market.

I get stuck 2x a week with more housing on Reed/ 15th and 27th, it'll be worse! Build an overpass!

The more the population grows the more of a problem it will be

Kele Sammons

This crossing is a problem, often backing up traffic to 15th street roundabout, and will become a bigger problem with all of the new homes being built along Reed Market.

Gabe West

I agree

Do you think changes are needed to the downtown Bend outdoor dining program?

Parking and city revenue out weigh the small gain in revenue the business say they receive.

Gary Dehm

Simply, they're unfair to other businesses. Each space represents potential income for one or multiple businesses. If parklettes are to remain, businesses should file an application per space with an associated annual fee, subject to increase rent cost/year. They cause more problems than they solve.

Pat Glandon

I don't shop downtown or eat due to lack of parking.

Since nobody sits outside in the cold of winter, why not remove all the outdoor eating areas at least in the winter??

Jay B Lane

Nobody is sitting outside in the winter months and Street dining should be limited May - October months. Also what is not needed is 4 season dining in these structures (walls. Heaters, etc) when restaurants have room inside. If eateries don't have room inside, shouldn't be taking public space

A few circles around the area, I always find a spot. It’s not any different than any other city. I like seeing people enjoying the outdoors. That’s why we live here.

NO, with all the info out there about scams, it is inexcusable for anyone savvy to be taken in by such. However, seniors are particularly vulnerable, and family should assist them in avoiding scams. I had to take away my mother's phone when she entered assisted living and later memory care.
