Capitola, CA's survey to reduce all purpose traffic lanes, add Class IVs

[Sand Geo]

Everyone,

The city of Capitola in Santa Cruz County, California recently put out a survey

to effectively reduce all purpose traffic lanes to add Class IV/"Protected" bike lanes.

The survey also covers other things such as street furniture, trees etc but I thank you in advance for taking a look at it and let them know the real impact of such changes.

I did so, pointing out, among other things, the debacle of doing so on Capitola's Bay Ave.

Thank you.

Sandrine.

Done -- thank you for the opportunity. I stressed to them that I am a transportation cyclist (i.e., VMT reducer, not one of the lycra-clad club riders), and how well properly designed Class II bike lanes work. I gave them absolute hell about the dangers inherent in bollards, emphasizing driveway exits, as well as right hooks and left crosses and the entire false sense of security sham.
