Bicycle advocates urge care on the roads
*************************************************************************
County Executive Ken Ulman, who describes himself as a recreational cyclist, said that while Columbia was among the first communities in Maryland to have designated bike paths, "they didn't think destinational, getting from your house to the mall safely on a bike. … Particularly in downtown Columbia, there are big, sweeping roads that allow vehicles to go very fast."
Ulman said the proposed redevelopment of downtown Columbia is "getting us to focus on streetscapes and complete streets with sidewalks and bike lanes and parking areas." .
