He said he’d take another look.
What’s the weather got to do with it? How stupid.
And by the way, I had been thinking of writing a post in which I said that due to parked cars separating the bike lane from the motor vehicle lane, bollards along the entire east side was probably overkill.
I hereby retract that thought in its entirety. Closely-spaced bollards should be installed along the entire length, both sides.
Thanks for keeping up the pressure with solid factual evidence combined with a good dose of healthy outrage and indignation.
Glad you re-assessed. I'd argue bike lane encroachment is actually more frequent on the parking side...if probably less dangerous.
