[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure if this has been mentioned but part of University Blvd in MoCo now has full dedicated bike lanes- so instead of 3 car lanes on each side its 2 each. Be interested to see how this works- [b]were people really clamoring to bike on this road?[/b][/quote] Yes. Without those bike lanes, your choices are to bike on the narrow sidewalk or to make a big detour. With those bike lanes, you can now comfortably take the most direct route (for about a mile...) Haven't you noticed people biking on the sidewalk? The bike lanes will also make the sidewalk more comfortable for people who are walking or waiting for the bus.[/quote] If the planners required setbacks for wider sidewalks then there would be no competing interests. However this is currently anathema for some reason that is hard to comprehend. [/quote]
