In Portland, Oregon, a group of parents and one teacher came together to create an alternative way of getting kids to school while clearing road congestion.
shares more details about the “bike bus” where hundreds of students ride together through the neighborhood.

Every morning in front of my house in a suburb of Portland I watch parents and kids riding together to school.
That same school lines up with mom's driving huge SUVs to pickup the elite kids there backing up traffic for blocks.
Cover those stories as well.

Thank you for reporting this delightful story. All you hear about from the republicans running for office in Oregon is how terrible, violent, and full of homeless people Portland is. There is still a lot that is wonderful about Portland!

This is downtown Portland the entire summer of 2020 between the hours of 10pm to 6 am.
Drazan is right... it is violent and dangerous.
If you're from Portland and you can't see the issues facing us, you're part of this problem.

Oh yeah, I'm sure they kids all love biking to school instead of the bus.
Beeeeaaaautiful!
The spirit of Portland shines brightly thanks to everyone who makes this possible. 😇👏🏻💜
My daughter was employed by Commute Options in Bend, OR and they’ve been doing this for 8 years. It’s such a great experience for the students! Glad Portland has joined the ranks.
