@BryanByBike Disagree. From my considerable experience in Downtown, curbs keep the snowmelt chemicals and other pollutants that run off sidewalks out of the planted areas, thereby enhancing plant and tree viability.
@00Piep Gee “only” 9 years? (cue sarcasm font). @ladyat5280 & I began advocating for a protected bike lane on 17th St. in 2009 and it “only” took the City 14 years to get that done. But seriously-fantastic news! It could not have happened without the persistence & vision of you & others.
@BikeThisCity Denver doesn’t suffer from a lack of plans. A lot of resources go into the planning process that could be moved into more active type plan/implementation. Pop ups for example could be quasi planning implementation hybrid…we suffer from a lack of imagination. We are burned out.
A fabulous presentation this morning by Councilman Hinds about the many existing plans that shape the coming 5280 Trail. No stronger supporter of the Trail than @DenverPerfect10. Golden Triangle needs car-free Acoma Street, new neighborhood green space! https://t.co/Xhrf5rIC5h
@GoingDutchDEN @kroger I agree. It makes me feel much less secure about parking my bike there to go shopping. You and I should talk to the store manager about changing it.
@AllenCowgill Allowing scooters like this was the biggest mistake that Amsterdam made in regulating its bicycle network that I saw when I was there. The most dangerous thing is the difference in speed between scooters and human-powered bicycles. So definitely no.
