As for sharrows, it’s safer to NOT have them. Via #StreetsblogUSA, read their article linked below. #bikelanes #bikes #cities #transportation #mobility #sharrows #infrastructure #urbanism

@BrentToderian also can we talk about how bike paths are not good substitutes for protected bike lanes? They’re great for leisure but everything you need to do is connected to the road network, so bikes should have protected lanes there, too.
