So our city is gettin' serious and real about actually putting in more separated bike lanes going through the downtown area by end of this year. Wow. That is bold. But then maybe the Olympics road closure experience helped make locals see how city coped.when we exceeded original 30% goal of LESS cars into the downtown core during the Games.
We have 2 main separated bike lanes in city that are adjacent to a busy road.
Most recent one was created without too much public outcry/teeth-gnashing.
In case, some folks aren't clear what separated bike lanes look like:
