[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For me, [b]the one thing that makes Connecticut Ave such a bad idea for bikes lanes is that it is the gateway for millions of tourists each year[/b]. Most of whom are not familiar with DC roads nor used to driving in any city. So to mix those tens of thousands of tourist cars each year with a project that will induce thousands of new cyclists each day seems like a total death wish. For that reason Connecticut Ave is fairly unique as compared to other roads where this has been attempted. It’s just a really bad idea. [/quote] To me, that makes Connecticut Ave a GOOD idea for bike lanes. Think about all of the tourists who DON'T arrive or get around DC by car. They use Metro, walk, use Bikeshare bikes, use e-scooters...[/quote]
