Sign indicating "Share The Road" in the middle of the bike lane, right before construction forced all road users to the right. Why block the bike lane here, why not block the car lane? After all, motorists are the ones who must execute a lane shift here.
After taking this photo a police officer stepped out into the road and tried to give me a hard time about how he specifically placed the sign in the bike lane because it was safer to force cyclists to merge instead of forcing cars to merge. It sounds like he was mad at cyclists filtering forward on the right (which is a bit stupid in a narrow lane!), but that seems like an odd reason to then force *every* cyclist to do something else dangerous.
I obviously did not call CPD for this obstructed bike lane because it was CPD who obstructed the bike lane in the first place.

They should move this - people on bikes will have to swerve left into car traffic to avoid it. Very dangerous.
Sidenote- "Share the Road" doesn't actually communicate what drivers need to do - many seem to think it means that they should try to share a LANE with a person on a bike, which does not leave a safe distance for the person on a bike.
"Bikes May Use Full Lane" is a much clearer directive - CPD should replace the unclear signs with better ones and not block bike traffic with dangerous obstacles
