Comment
As a cyclist who rides everyday to work in Burlington I wholly support this initiative.
My only comment is that I hope changes are made with more thought, planning, and organization than the current cycling initiatives currently being carried out in this town: here cycling lanes have been created that start, stop, and lead to nowhere. They are not connected, thus being useless to cyclists.
In addition, they are created on main roads such as New St. and Lakeshore Rd. and thereby causing traffic problems. We need to work with drivers, not alienate them by narrowing arterial roads.
Finally, the combination of bike lanes, road narrowings and traffic 'bumps' is unsafe, as combined on New St.
Thank you for the opportunity for input.
