Very cool! That road always felt excessively wide for the limited traffic it gets. I hope the traffic calming is a success…

With that said, a few things pop in my head looking at the plans…

1- im curious why they are only going across half the viaduct…

2- i appreciate the protected bike lane, but i feel like this change actually makes bicycle movement a bit more confusing here… specifically around the roundabout… the jersey barriers seem to really obscure the bike lane’s entry/exit point… i hope they provide clear lane makrings to show the intended bicycle movement

To add onto that, i know theyre just following existing conditions, but this is a prime example of how anytime the road configuration gets even the slightest bit complicated, they consistently just abruptly end the bike lanes… always found that super frustrating as it is super stressful.

3- the sidewalk here is a multi-use trail with (for me at least) confusing signage… i wish they would add curb cuts at the ramp & mark the intended HAST path better

I love the idea of a station there!

Add a station & a bunch of high density development in the parking lot and you have a great neighborhood with lots of potential.

With that said, i feel like such a station would be better suited for a commuter rail system, but id love a station there regardless of if its amtrak or commuter.

Excited to take a ride on the new line (even if it goes nowhere for the time being lol). I hope once it is actually complete, it sees success
