Portland's gravel streets

What to do with them

Catalog them and figure out how each are used

Vacate ones primarily used as driveways or don't otherwise go through

Create low-cost bike/walk paths on some, possibly using rest of land as natural area

Allow low-cost improvements (e.g. sidewalks as extension of asphalt separated by curbs to eliminate need for concrete and stormwater pipes, or mixed-use street)
