Lol...right...Ottawa crosses the expressway twice.
I've used them...they're fine...they're protected by a roll curb...which is to say....they're a mediocre protected bike lane...which is better than a painted bike lane...but it remains incredibly frustrating the bad choices our regional engineers make, even in the face overwhelming public pressure to do the right damn thing.
I'm fairly certain at this point, there are egos involved.
Whoops, yeah I meant the new roll curb ones. I haven't tried them yet, only passed by in a car a few times. It just seems like for the amount of effort that went in, something way better could have been built. But I thought maybe the experience of using them isn't actually as bad as it looks.
