Hello-
I was actually hit by a car on washington between 3rd and Smiths St's tonight, 3/7/24 a bit after 6 pm.
A Porsche SUV driven by a college-aged female drove up next to me, then attempted to turn west onto Smith directly in front of me causing me to run into the passenger side door with my elbow and bike.
I had a rear blinking light on, so this person had to have seen me as she approached.
I'm fine; I yelled some very not-nice things and continued on my way.
I know there's nothing to be done here, but in the interest of logging yet another incident in this area, I wanted to report.
thanks again.
Sorry, no picture.

The city has a long history of not clearing snow, ice, and other debris from the parts of the bike lane on 3rd street that go between the sidewalk and the raised bus stop platforms. The new barriers designed to prevent car drivers from using the bike lane to drop off passengers seem to be compounding the issue, making it impossible for ordinary snow plows to clear the bike lane. Does the city have any plan at all for cleaning the bike lanes with these barriers in place?
The job that was done of plowing the bike lane on 3rd between High and Eagleson was not stellar - there are many places where ice extends more than halfway into the bike lane from the curb, increasing the risk of someone slipping on the ice and falling into the path of an unsuspecting car. But we can be thankful that some attempt was made. The bike lane between Eagleson and Henderson is not only useless for bicyclists, but it is now a much greater impediment to pedestrians crossing 3rd than it was prior to the installation of the barriers.

City needs to install a delineator along the dedicated bike lane that spans 3rd street between Emerson Ave & Indiana Ave. An extremely unsafe traffic pattern is forming where motorists are unsafely pulling into the bike lane hundreds of time a week, constantly causing near-misses and even some small accidents. This is a really bad accident waiting to happen.

Can we please get some traffic calming measures added to sheffield drive between Morningside and Park Ridge Rd? With the added morningside calming measures Sheffield has become a drag strip for individuals to get to the back of the neighborhood. Children at play signs, etc. are not helping. Any chance for enhanced enforcment and ticket citations?
