I agree. I am frequently startled when I meet or overtake pedestrians and joggers who carry no lights with them. I have two lights on my bike (double the light but also in case a battery dies) and it isn't enough. There aren't enough clear nights with lots of moonlight to fill in the gaps.
I know the path was built with conduit for future lighting and I also know the lighting was eliminated as a compromise to wary neighbors who feared swarms of evil-doers travelling along a well-lit path as their means of attack and escape. But now many in the neighborhood also use the path at night and would probably be in favor of lighting. Does anyone on this list know where this goes next? By the time a lighting proposal passes through the city committees and gets on the project list, the economy may well be on the mend and the budget support it. _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.danenet.org/listinfo.cgi/bikies-danenet.org
