I agree completely. I take that turn every day and I'm never certain I'm doing it correctly. The bike lane should have been between the northbound lane and the right turn lane in my opinion.

<p>So ... more than 72 hours after the recent snowfall and there is still enough snow and ice in the southbound lane between Halsted and Ogden to make the bike lane un-rideable. Seriously!!!??? Well the trucks blocking the bike lane that were reported by DNAinfo are now a moot point. </p>
<p></p>
<p>I posted this to Burnett's facebook page in the hope that they clear the lane. The rest of the lane is fine beyond that. </p>

<p>You forgot to mention the part about "mama" up the road... :)</p>

<p>Im starting to wonder if this is why they made the bike lane as wide as it is, so this lil plow guy could fit in it. Unfortunately, other small cars also try to drive in it at times...</p>

<p>I re-started physical therapy yesterday for my "protected" bike land ice wipeout last winter. Now starting to lose feeling in my left foot, due to the slipped disc in my back from my wipeout. While I love the concept of the protected lanes, you're never going to get the regular snow and ice removal and salt that the car lanes get. After much winter biking, I think I'm out... till the weather breaks in spring. </p>

<p>My route down Milwaukee to work used to be great in the winter, mainly just wet from all the salt and car traffic. It was great. But you get ice in those new partitioned off lanes and you've got to avoid them altogether or be incredibly careful. I'd hate for anyone else to get the back pain and nerve trouble I'm having. </p> Nice!tag:thechainlink.org,2015-11-22:2211490:Comment:9563282015-11-22T14:16:27.464ZV Whttps://thechainlink.org/profile/vincentwaller

I see the South and Westbound lanes going in, unfortunately a cab was parked in the Northbound lane,a delivery cart and already broken glass.

<p>I've had the same thoughts/ observations. I, too, am not feeling good about this right now. There's been a whole bunch of glass (from a broken car window...?) right near the Bobby Cann memorial site. The first day I rode the bike lane, I saw it too late and since it is a cement barrier, I couldn't swerve around it and had to barrel through. Luckily, no flat. Since then, I've been riding slowly through that section, or...just riding in the street.</p>

<p>I've also notice the construction crews sometimes like to park right at the north end of the northbound lane and happen to block the exit. I am hoping my mind will change when all construction is complete. </p>
<p>I have my concerns for winter riding but I'll try to be optimistic and tell myself: they'll have it figured out by then and will definitely plow in a timely manner. o.O Hmm..</p>
