PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — After surveying nearly 20,000 citizens to learn which Burnside Bridge replacement design the public preferred most, Multnomah County was advised on Sept. 3 to move forward with a design that would defy public opinion.
It was recommended Tuesday that the Multnomah County Board of Commissioners choose the inverted Y-shaped cable-stay design for the Burnside Bridge replacement project. The inverted Y-shaped tower ranked fourth out of six designs presented to the public, survey results show.
