Bob Stacey Crossing (formerly Gideon Overcrossing) is a pedestrian bridge in southeast Portland, Oregon's Hosford-Abernethy neighborhood, in the United States. The bridge spans tracks for both Union Pacific Railroad and TriMet's MAX Light Rail.[1] Construction on the $15 million project started in May 2019.[2] The overcrossing opened in November 2020.[3]
The Portland Bureau of Transportation (PBOT) renamed the bridge Bob Stacey Crossing in 2021 in honor of Bob Stacey.[4][5][6]
