Vehicles routinely stop in the bike lane near the pedestrian island at the Jordan Bus bus stop. The pedestrian islands are great! But if selfish motorists block the bike lane waiting to pick up their friend (the "diva drop-off" phenomenon), they don't work. This is a frequent issue during the day.
Because of the shadow from the concrete wall, the sun can't melt the snow on the multi-use path. This turns to ice and is too chunky to ride through.
Question: Is there a chance to have more gravel spread on the red clay dirt prior to the bike path? It's been okay with the dry summer, but it is impossible to pass from Tapp. to the bike path when muddy with the rains. Thank you for this consideration. My alternate route is biking up Tapp to 37S. As you are aware, Tapp, under construction is also less than ideal.

I wasn't sure what category to put this in... do city employees know that the B-Line is a pedestrian and bike path? Because a city truck (actual full sized truck, not a parks gator) was just driving north on the b-line (i saw near Dodds). I figured it was a student or freshman parent and was going to stop them and then it ended up being a city vehicle. It was definitely on purpose because she had the opportunity to turn onto Dodds. Can even our B-Line not be safe from cars?
Debris in the bike lane got into my front wheel and caused damage. Bike lanes really need to be cleaner. I wasn't hurt, but it could have been much worse.
The runoff created a hole in the side of Meadowbrook, southwest of Brighton. Walkers, runners, etc. are in danger of breaking bones. Thank you!
Walnut street bike lane filled with debris. From around 10th street down towards 17th.
Sand & gravel here is very deep. Makes it hazardous to bike through. Whenever we get a good rain, the sand & gravel always reappears.
