Third Public Meeting Minutes – York Road Streetscape Project


"Bicycle traffic and safety was discussed. Mr. Ledebur recounted that floating bike lanes and sharrows along York Road are impractical as long as there is restricted parking/travel lanes along the corridor. It was also explained York Road is not considered a major bike corridor in the City’s Bicycle Master Plan, and that Old York Road is also a viable parallel alternative for bicycle traffic. The City has directed the Design Team to include “Share the Road” signage within the project corridor to increase awareness and safety of bicycle traffic."

[B' Spokes: This is all well and good but still I would like to see the City make use of the "Bikes May Use Full Lane" signs. IMHO share the road signs are more appropriate in rural areas and less appropriate in urban settings.]

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
