Randolph bike lane between Clinton and canal

Can we get the city to redo this and admit that they made a mistake with this design?  You’re either about to get right hooked here by cars turning right, without looking for you and or then running…Continue

Aggressive left turns.

Angry City.

John Durham replied to Gage B.'s discussion Concrete Barrier on Lakefront path
"That's a valid concern.  The past couple of years the park district has been really good about keeping the path plowed and salted all winter long.  Hopefully this won't impact that. I commute on the path every weekday. "

"As I rode it yesterday, I was thinking these barriers might just help to keep spray from LSD from dumping onto the bike path, as opposed to water/snow blowing over from the lake to LSD. "

"Nothing from Uber, not surprising to me, they suck. Maybe Lyft could tell I had an account with them and Uber could see I don't have one with them."
