its the 21st century now, FHWA design guidance and planning for bicycles in the transportation mix has already moved beyond the feud. Some of the particulars against thoughtful planning for road and highway bike traffic have not.
If you haven't noticed I think we are having a conversation even though I did the op totally wrong.
I will agree there is potential to interpret FHWA design guidance so it is in the 21st century but the kicker is there is also the potential to propagate the same old issues that are discussed in this paper. There is no requirement to force "the best interpretation" of FHWA design guidance. There is no requirement to even use the FHWA guidance, in fact some States write their own guidance.
