Broadway Bike-Lane
Has anyone checked out the currently–under-construction bike-lane on Broadway? It's very nice: segregated from traffic (sidewalk, motor-vehicle traffic, car-parking, buffer-zone, bike-lane, sidewalk — as noted from west to east, bird's-eye view). I'm not sure how extensive the thing will be, but I think it's an excellent model for how New York City ought to implement bike-lanes on adequately wide streets (i.e., most avenues). I'd love to see something like this along the length of most of Second Avenue and Third or First Avenue — the east side of Manhattan is sorely lacking "bicycle-friendliness," especially in the mid-town region.
