Description

Olive St is a nice bike route, but getting from Olive St to the Vision Trail is made difficult by a tricky left turn from Water St onto the trail. This would be the perfect place for a bicycle left turn pocket. I used one every day on my commute this summer in Vancouver, WA. I’ll ask my mom to take a photo of it.

the second proposal looks like a dedicated bike lane, right? I

If we stepped back for a minute and thought about it, are bicyclists really any safer in traffic than pedestrians? I don't think so. I definitely like dedicated lanes and wish everyone got on board with them so that we incorporate them whenever we can.
