From today’s West Side Journal, a discussion of the bike trails (or lack thereof) on the new extension they just completed of Paseo del Norte:
“Oh my,” John says. “When you get to the top of the hill, where the road narrows, there is not only no bike lane, but no shoulder. And not only no shoulder, but in places they’ve built a curb on both sides, leaving cars no place to go to the left and bicycles no place to go to the right.”
Your planning staff has nothing with teeth in it that says bikes shall have connectivity. You need to get on someone to update your Comp Plan and insert a policy for connectivity. Power of the pen, John.
Best,

Paradise is almost traffic-free these days.

Sarah –
So you could ride your bike down Paradise to work!
