As someone who used to bike to work everyday and was constantly almost grazed by crazy memphis drivers this hits close to home. If you're scared in the safety of your car, take a second to imagine how a bike rider would feel.
Im from Tunica Mississippi & a bike enthusiast & I support this cause down here we don't have bike lanes only in our downtown section so I really support this cause a lot🙏🏽🚴🏽🚴🏽 happy trails
I avoid Lake Wash Blvd whenever possible. It really should be signed as dangerous for bikes.
The section southbound from E. Olive Ln downhill has a narrow path in the road to thread terrible dangerous potholes. Southbound section between E Jefferson & E Terrace St has gotten really bad forcing one into traffic.
To get to I-90 trail I now detour via 27th Ave E to E Columbia to 29th Ave to E Cherry to 32nd Av to S Frink Pl
I am a frequent bike rider of Lake Washington Blvd. It's hard to believe a World Class city would let an important city street to fall in such obvious disrepair.
The majority of homeless and jobless individuals ride bikes, most being electric powered. How will they get around to look for jobs? The city has an ordinance that sidewalk riding is prohibited on bicycles, electric bikes, and gas powered bikes. So why doesn't the city use our tax dollars for actual needed roadwork in which bike lanes are incorporated on the major streets? Instead they want to take more money from already broke people when half the towns transportation is a bicycle...
Lived in Nola for ten years wishing for this the entire time. So many driving miles wasted by those seeking free parking which will not likely be found, spoiling the experience for everyone who only wants to enjoy the this rare neighborhood the way it should be — at human speed
I lived in New Orleans for years and worked in the French Quarter as a bicycle tour guide and pedicab driver. The amount of vehicle traffic is not only incredibly difficult and frustrating, but really dangerous for everyone. The quarter would be so much safer, more beautiful, and functional with this plan. Please on behalf of the city and visitors consider this important issue. Thank you!
New Orleans City Code Sec. 146-36 established a complete streets program in 2012 that REQUIRES planning for all users and making decisions based on crash data. Year after year, the quarter and the boundary of Canal Street have the highest number of pedestrian crashes-- this plan needs to be taken seriously for the public health of New Orleanians over the tourism industry. Inaction not only affects quality of life, but is costing lives.
