Hello folks. I'm K50 Dude and have made some contributions to this article (mainly starting it). However we have a large problem. Our only image on this page meets the criteria for deletion and will be gone within a week. You can click on it to see the template. The main problem is that there is no copyright notice and it looks like it was tooken from a website, so it may even be nominated for Speedy Deletion soon.

If someone can please put a copyright tag on that image so we don't lose it, it would be very appreciated.

Hi.

I've done some revisions to this article. Does anybody have a picture? We really need one. Meanwhile, this article is coming along quite well. Notice though that "Catheters Bridge" isn't returning many news article results if you search for it. "New Portland Bridge" works better to find more information to add.

Thanks.

K50 Dude-(talk page)

Yeah, what's the source on "Catheters Bridge"? Catheters was an old landowner in the area who also gave her name to some local streets and a park, but TriMet steadfastly refers to this as the "Willamette River Bridge."

The bridge will cross the river at Caruthers Street and so the bridge was referred to early on as the "Caruthers bridge" (lowercase), but the Caruthers Bridge name did also appear in some maps and in some of the early documents. I also seem to recall that it was the Portland City Council's preferred name, tying in with a park named for Caruthers. It's certainly possible that another name will be chosen before the bridge is opened, but don't see the harm in leaving this article as is for now until that occurs. --Esprqii (talk) 18:32, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2010-07-21T18:32:00.000Z","author":"Esprqii","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Esprqii-2010-07-21T18:32:00.000Z-Andersem-2010-07-21T02:14:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

User:Zszs54321 added some good information about the history of Chinook Jargon in early Portland to the lede. Since the article is primarily about the bridge, the focus on the history of Chinook Jargon is a bit WP:RECENT. A new section might be created in this article about it, but I also think this part really belongs in the Chinook Jargon article:

After about 1900, when such daily interactions were less frequent, Jargon was spoken among pioneer families to prove how early they arrived out west. Many Oregonians used Jargon in casual conversation--to add humor, whimsy or emphasis and to exhibit deep knowledge of Oregon’s history. Though traditions of speaking Jargon faded away among the non-Native population, some of Oregon's tribal groups continued speaking Chinuk Wawa, though usage was dramatically diminished. However, a strong revival occurred with the Grand Ronde's 2012 "Chinuk Wawa" dictionary. (Prince, Tracy J. (February 27, 2014). "Why Tillicum is the right name for TriMet's new bridge: Guest opinion". The Oregonian. Retrieved April 17, 2014.)

Given that a megathrust earthquake is expected within the lifetime of this bridge, it would be interesting to know how big a quake it is being designed to withstand. Nearly all bridges in Portland will collapse and this one will become vital for emergency vehicles and evacuations. I do not know the answer or I would be adding it to the article rather than writing this comment.

I added the category "Road bridges in Oregon" because buses and emergency vehicles may access the bridge. Though, I could also argue that this category is slightly misleading since private automobiles cannot access the bridge.

It is a road, even if it isn't public-access. That's my thought, at least.
