THE PROBLEM WITH THE BELAIR RD “TRAFFIC CALMING AND STREETSCAPING” PLAN

B' Spokes: One of the things I really enjoy seeing in bicycling advocacy are solutions that address issues and accommodate everyone. How many businesses would like less obstacles to make it easier for motorists to get to their business? I think a good many and that's what Bikemore as put forth.

Wait, what? Cycling advocates are for more car friendly street designs? In a way yes but a better term would be more of a main street that accommodates everyone than a highway that stresses throughput of just motor vehicles. Or to put it another way succinctly: a successful place = lots of people milling around, an economically stressed place = lots of cars zooming by and not stopping.
