Ottawa Street Widening (Hwy. 7 to Lackner)
#3
Maybe! I see it other places when riding, and I always scratch my head and wonder what I'm "supposed" to do. I usually end up riding on the road within the designated lane figuring that's what the intent is, but then I see this nice, wide paved trail off to the side... But I don't want to get fined for riding on the "sidewalk".

I guess the differentiation in my mind between "sidewalk" (no riding) and MUT (riding is ok) is that sidewalk is concrete and MUT is paved, but it seems silly that the technology choice should dictate the use. So I'm guessing my mindset is wrong.

I am not sure if Ottawa is getting 4 lanes here instead of 2, or if it is just the addition of cycling lanes and OAL cleanup. I'm guessing it'll be 4 lanes.
