Interesting to see what WSDOT and ODOT do on the 4.2 mile long Astoria-Megler Bridge (US101). It was re-striped a few years ago and has a decent space (~3') right of fog line. On Hood to Coast and Kite Festival weekend a cyclist asked me if she should take the lane. I said no because there is space and a 4 mile rolling slow down with hundreds of accelerating cars going around cyclists into a heavily traveled opposing lane is more dangerous than 45/50 mph weekend traffic. Bridge painting really slowed cars down as well.
