Cascade Avenue in Sisters, Oregon
Cramped Sidewalk
 

      
A potentially
      fatal flaw for a main street, Sisters had to settle for narrow,
      six-foot sidewalks along Cascade Avenue, which is a state highway
      that carries heavy traffic through the town. Here, building posts
      make the sidewalk so narrow that it is difficult for two people
      to pass without stepping into the street. Civic leaders are still
      divided on whether to re-route truck traffic or create a couplet
      to address the heavy flows, and allow for improved sidewalks
      and pedestrian crossings.
