This Isn’t Just a Path. It’s a Lifeline.

The Third Street pedestrian path connects our neighborhood to essential walking trails — but it’s dangerously steep, lacks handrails, and is completely inaccessible to those with disabilities. Children, seniors, and residents pushing strollers face daily risks. Several people have already fallen.

Every Step Is a Risk

One resident broke their injured. Another avoids the path entirely. How many more injuries before the city acts?

Seniors slipping and falling

Parents struggling with strollers

Difficult accessibility for wheelchairs

No handrails, steps, or slope control

PETITION TO THE CITY COUNCIL OF LAKE OSWEGO, OREGON

Dear [City Council Member / Public Works Director / Mayor’s Office],
I am writing as a concerned resident and regular user of the city-owned path that runs from Third Street across the railroad tracks to the walking path in Lake Oswego, Oregon. This route is dangerously steep and lacks basic safety features such as handrails or steps.
Many people — including seniors, children, and those with limited mobility — use this path daily. I have personally witnessed or experienced unsafe conditions, including slips and near-falls. The current design is a safety hazard and is not accessible to all.
I urge the City of Lake Oswego to take immediate steps to fix the path and make it safe for all.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
