The problem is that there are lots of bikes in the area due to the N/S MUP trail that goes past Campbell Park, but once you get off the trail in either direction onto campbell ave, to hook up to surface road bike lanes, you have to ride in the road. This is not a problem for me, but almost all of the other cyclists I see end up riding on the sidewalk. This is especially dangerous on the Hwy 17 underpass/tunnel because it's extremely narrow and there's a lot of foot traffic - so cyclists going through the tunnel on the sidewalk often collide or near-miss with peds.

The BAUFL signs are good because they're educational for both motorists AND cyclists.
