I have a planning/engineering question... I've been really liking the multi-use trail along Franklin in Cambridge. It's a really great way to get North-South in the city. It unfortunately has a LOT of driveway crossings and some very un-attentive drivers.
Since Franklin is a separated road, people trying to pull out of their driveway/parking lots are only looking at traffic from one direction and constantly don't notice me coming on a bike in the other direction. What sort of path/driveway design would help with this, other than the existing awful dotted lines?
This gas station for example has people turning in constantly and they never check for any pedestrians or bikes. This seems pretty negligent to me?
