SW Century Drive (between the Wash. roundabout & Welcome Center) to be able to cross haul trail, rimrock trail and neighborhoods more frequently. Traffic is increasing so additional crossing points are vital to keep bikers and walkers on the paths that protect them from cars.
There are several places in Bend this would be useful. Not sure if there is a place for one near Shepherd's House, where there are constantly people running or riding across the road. This would also be safer on the Parkway, where there are flashing lights and crosswalks.
