“Do you know why you can’t park here?”

“There’s nowhere else to park!” (reading the newspaper)

“Yeah there is – the buffer zone 10 feet over, nobody’s parked there and cyclists and cars can both pass by smoothly”

“Oh yeah. I’ll move into that…” (doesn’t actually move truck). – Thanks FedEx!

View Broadway Protected Bike Lane extension (early summer 2009) in a larger map

Last week, lines were spraypainted down, this week, actual construction has begun on continuing the broadway separated bike path! If the rate of progress on this lane is similar to last summer’s construction of the initial lane below 42nd street, it should be ready to roll (on) in about a month.
