THIS IS NOT A BIKE LANE: Current designs for this corridor include a failed attempt at creating a bike lane that includes using the gutter/curb as part of the lane itself. Such a design will force cyclists to continue using the traffic lanes to avoid debris in the gutters or risk getting a flat tire. Full, five foot, designated bike lanes should be included as an integral part of the project. This is consistent with the City Master Plan. Based on preliminary drawings for this project this should be easily achieved, but the project designers have failed to include them.
