In 1998 and 1999, the Alberta Street community was engaged in a planning process to make the street a better place to walk, ride a bike and use transit, while maintaining automobile access and parking. The plan was adopted by Portland's City Council in February 2000. Construction is scheduled to begin in April 2002 and should be complete by June 2003. The project will build improvements between NE MLK Jr. Blvd and NE 33rd Ave, including curb extensions at transit stops and key crossings, school crossing improvements, new ornamental street lighting and traffic signals, street trees and public art.
