I'm so proud of my hometown, having just finished its first dedicated bike lane. Barriers separate the two bike lanes from cars; they even have their own traffic lights.But next week's mayoral election threatens progress. The anti-bike challenger makes misleading or simply false claims that bike lanes take away parking and slow down traffic. He also enjoys a substantial lead.
This is in Twin? Boise could benefit from something like this; we've had multiple car-bicycle accidents in the last few weeks, including at least one fatality.
ReplyDeleteI guess it's how one define "hometown." I've lived in Seattle longer than I lived in Twin Falls--what can I say?
ReplyDeleteHaha, I was going to be pretty amazed if Twin Falls was this progressive :). Seattle makes more sense!!
