The car lanes all along 7th street this morning were completely clear, while the bike lanes were filled with a thick blanket of soggy, slippery leaves. A bike is infinitely more likely than a car to slip on leaves, so why would you prioritize cars and an appearance of tidiness for drivers over the safety of bikers and those around them?
The bike lane on 7th approaching the IMU is a real big problem. This afternoon is took me 20 minutes to go one block from 7th to IMU parking because there is NO MORE BUS lane. I think the bike lane needs to be removed. I was shocked at the slowness of the traffic. It also causes problems on the adjacent streets. This was not thought out clearly and needs to be fixed.
Longview was the best (or one of) greenways for biking, and really the only one from east side to downtown. But for probably two years now? the construction by Best Buy has clogged that up. When will that finally finish? I assume a construction requirement is that they make a nice Greenway for biking again? I'm concerned the traffic there will make it much more dangerous than it was so hoping the City has thought that complex/bike path through.
