Project Background

silhouettes of activities on the future Green Loop

Portland City Council adopted the vision for the Green Loop in 2018 as a strategy to improve health outcomes, support business districts, expand inclusive access to regional destinations, and support the growth of Portland’s Central City. The Green Loop Concept Plan is a collaborative effort among city bureaus who will bring the Green Loop vision to life and builds on the previous planning for the Green Loop.  

Goals for the Green Loop Concept Plan:

  • Refresh and strengthen the shared vision for the Green Loop.
  • Explore how the Green Loop can support community goals around equity, local businesses, parks and public spaces, climate resilience, and more.
  • Confirm the Green Loop route, including possible temporary or alternative routes.
  • Develop design concepts that fit within typical Portland street widths.
  • Evaluate how the Green Loop might affect traffic and parking.
  • Identify specific projects with rough cost estimates for both temporary and permanent improvements.
  • Outline an approach for building the Green Loop over time.
