Personally, I find those make that particular intersection even more challenging, and I'd rather not have more along the way. The whole incident certainly has left me shaken, but I will continue to ride that route about 3 times each week. I might go tomorrow... maybe Friday. As horrible as this whole event is. I will not change how I live and ride. You know, there is a ghost bike right there at Chambers. You can see it in some of the scene photos. The woman who was killed there was hit by a turning truck less than an hour after I rode by about 2 years ago. It's sobering every time I pass it, and it reminds me to be vigilant but I ride it anyway. Essentially, I'm just saying be aware but don't let this sort of thing scare you into giving up part of your life. Sorry that this post veered off. Back to the subject: I think bollards will create more problems than they will solve on the Hudson Greenway.
