Trimet wants to close the Willow Creek path to Baseline

A very bad idea. This will force riders to walk all the way out to 185th and then down to baseline.

I spent a good deal of my career at Trimet at the Willow Creek Transit Center and use that path hundreds of times. It was the best way to get coffee at the stand in the shopping center.

While the path may be a little scary at night I never had any incidents nor did I ever hear of any incidents in the 15 years I worked at Trimet.  "Mischief" complaints, oh brother

TriMet weighs closing path near Willow Creek MAX station due to mischief complaints - BikePortland.org

    What TriMet needs to do is practice some of the Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design they talk about and address the design traits of the path that encourage bad behavior. And maybe add some cameras.
