[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Put the bike lane on 34th - Reno. If DDOT then could “encourage” more thru vehicle traffic to move off of Reno and back to Connecticut (the major arterial route) that could be be a win-win for several adjacent neighborhoods.[/quote] Cleveland Park and North Cleveland Park residents advocated for decades to get the turn lanes on 34th/Reno. They are not going away anytime soon and particularly not for bike lanes that have no commercial activity and do not connect from one place to another.[/quote] The neighborhoods advocated to remove the old reversible lane on Reno/34th, which was more dangerous than the one on Connecticut. Center turn lanes not so much, because they encourage cut through traffic to divert to side streets in search of faster short cuts. In fact, the sections of Reno without the highway-like turn lane (esp. north of Nebraska) seem safer and calmer than the area with it.[/quote]
