Column: Oregon wants Bend on a driving diet
Original: Column: Oregon government wants Bend on a driving diet
A Bend Bulletin columnist argues that Oregon state government is pushing Bend residents to drive less, framing state transportation policy as a 'driving diet' for the Central Oregon city. The column criticizes efforts to curb car travel in a region built around driving, and the commentary is drawing attention among local readers debating state oversight of local transportation choices.
Why now: State efforts to reduce driving miles in Bend are a live local policy debate that the column amplifies.
