The local news tells us there's some "confusion" about the bike lanes on Stanton Ave, so we wanted to clear up the details with a 🧵 The traffic calming and bike lanes were the results of years of advocacy by MANY neighbors who wanted these improvements. 1/6

If you're worried about your car being sideswiped, think about the human consequences when people are forced into the street. Esp if it’s a narrow busy street, perhaps you can be as concerned with the safety of your neighbors as you are with the condition of your car 💭

We know this is a big issue in our neighborhoods!! Sidewalks are for people!

[BikePGH @BikePGH]

People from all walks of life are negatively impacted when you decide to park your vehicle on the sidewalk.

This is a question DOMI was really grappling with in their East Liberty plan. Do yinz think they got the balance right?

How would our streets look different if we truly prioritized safety ahead of speed? @SmartGrowthUSA

After months of requests, we finally got our 🚫No Parking🚫signs up in the Stanton Ave. bike lanes!! Unfortunately, some of our neighbors just don’t care. Please talk to your neighbors about why the bike lane is not parking, not even for “just a minute.”

[Morningside Stanton Heights - Livable Streets @MHeightsStreets]

@sam_shur Heck yeah!!

[Morningside Stanton Heights - Livable Streets @MHeightsStreets]

One of our neighbors has no driveway and has had no car parking options since the bike lanes went in. So the city has come up with an awesome creative solution! Love to see it!!

[Morningside Stanton Heights - Livable Streets @MHeightsStreets]

Right now: parking protected bike lane installation on Stanton Ave! There will be a 40ft section of parking between the car travel lane and the bike lane. Thx @DebGrosspgh @PghDOMI !

[Morningside Stanton Heights - Livable Streets @MHeightsStreets]

@carfreePGH We need to have the Stanton Ave lanes extended to Butler. Add in protected lanes on Mossfield. And shoot, let’s get the Allegheny River trail up to Highland Park and beyond!
