Gateway Green: A New Era of Accessibility
Portland Parks & Recreation has recently unveiled the final phase of improvements at Gateway Green, marking a significant milestone in the park’s evolution. The enhancements have not only beautified the area but also significantly improved accessibility for all visitors.
The improvements at Gateway Green also feature two extended “gravity line” trails, each now 80 yards longer, as well as new entry plazas, benches, and wayfinding signage. PP&R repaved the pump track, trails and plantings were refreshed, and new signs are planned for later this year. More About Gateway Green Gateway Green is a unique, 25-acre off-road cycling and hiking destination. Community partners including Friends of Gateway Green and NW Trail Alliance worked with the City to realize their vision. Together we transformed the property, formerly unused Oregon Department of Transportation land at the confluence of two interstates, into a much-needed, free site for off-road cycling and other outdoor recreation in East Portland.
