In are definitely not for . People ride recklessly and aggressively. We just started school and we have to 5km to get there and we are choosing pavement over dedicated . It’s just safer for the kid…🤷🏻‍♂️

To be honest, I don’t feel safe using them by myself either. I just didn’t have to commute for over 3 years and forgot how shitty the experience really is…

Usually European biking headlines are like, "BELGIUM OPENS NEW 100 MILE BIKE TRAIL SYSTEM IN CAPITAL" and American headlines are "BIKES BANNED DOWNTOWN AFTER DRUNK DRIVER KILLS CYCLIST" so in a way this is kind of refreshing.

A month of this isn't a bad idea, but I'd rather have more permanent parks, pocket gardens and protected .

Police keeping me safe by parking in a bike lane for at least half an hour. (There was no sign of an emergency, and the cop was just sitting in his car looking out the window, so I think OPD were "showing their presence" to discourage robberies & reassure the people calling for more law & order.) @BikeEastBay @RapidResponseTeam

I want more

And I want cars for folks who need them (those in rural locations or who can’t easily use alternate transport.)

And I want zero barriers for getting mobility equipment to those who need it (which would really solve some of the access problems for public transit, though not all of them.)

I so rarely see all of these statements together.

This writer uses a wheelchair and wants more bike lanes

"The comments sections of every social media post about these upgrades are littered with insincere cries about the removal of car parks...Well planned, inclusive and accessible infrastructure benefits all members of society, especially the marginalised. Lack of cycle infrastructure is negligent, ableist and ageist. "

I'll say it again.
They're dead.
editors are dead.
Extinct. 😐

What the heck do they mean are "a few meters wide"?! It's not even 1 meter wide! 🤷‍♀️

"... saddened by the MMDA's idea of zeroing in on bike lanes which only take up a few meters wide ..."

Please reply with your stories of where business owners profited from the lanes that they initially protested.

the ‘couve. In the central (uptown/downtown/waterfront/ / ) area it was very very nice. Getting there not so much. Even the dedicated bikeways were mostly just sandwiched next to freeways or busy highways and were smelly, noisy and dirty. Other key connectors were poorly maintained on busy streets. Sometimes I could find a quiet neighborhood street - but & has a long way to go to be “

From the National Association of City Officials (NACTO):

"It’s time to reshape the federal document that shapes U.S. —the Manual on Uniform Control Devices (MUTCD)...which hasn’t been substantially updated in over half a century. The federal government is in the final stages of updating MUTCD....Here are the key changes we’ll be looking out for." nacto.org/2023/08/14/reshape-t

are a great initiative and yes we absolutely need more of them. What about in places in the where main roads are narrow already - how do we make them more bike friendly?

The whole parking for small business vs transit vs bike lane might need to re-thought of. Can we incentivize busineses that would be ok with getting rid of parking for transit lanes or bike lanes? This fight is exhausting at the detriment of transit & bike infrastructure that tend to be watered down cuz of opposition. We also need to massively invest in transit & bike lane infra which will need a lot of advocacy work-locally, regionally, statewide, & Federally.

The NIMBYs in MURICA were right, dense development and lanes just ruined Paris. Look at how awful it is :drake_dislike:
