Huge respect for people biking and standing up for others. "For people like me that have a high level of biking ability, it's terrifying but OK...But for almost anybody else, it's a barrier that is disenfranchising them from [biking]" It's not OK, but it's what we have

Also coming soon to the SGR area: a temporary pilot project at the Queen St/Birmingham St/Artillery Pl intersection. This project will test out a new intersection design to improve safety, slow vehicle traffic before turns, and shorten pedestrian crossings.
