Durango, CO recently made interesting bike lane changes below (in this
email ad from Boure'. I took out the blatant advertising).
*Miracle on 32nd Street*
Crews were re-striping the lines on 32nd Street in Durango last week and
they're making very significant changes for the benefit of cyclists. In
this case, the usable Bike Lane has been increased in width by 2 feet by
moving it away from and off the gutter pan and by reducing the travel
lane to 11 feet. Yes, you did read that correctly - they are reducing
the width of the travel lane. Our hats go off to Amber Blake, the City
of Durango's MultiModal Coordinator, to Jack Rogers and Gregg Boysen, of
Durango's Public Works, and City Manager Ron LeBlanc for their
progressive thinking. Local advocacy groups working together as the Safe
Roads Coalition and spearheaded by Drew Bourey and Wade Moore of Bouré,
can feel proud of their efforts in helping make this change, and others,
more likely to happen.
New Road Cross Section - from Curb-to-Center:
- 12-18" Gutter Pan (no longer used as part of the Bike Lane)
- 4" White Line (new)
- 5 foot Bike Lane (was about 3-1/2 feet when excluding the unusable
gutter pan)
- 8" Double White Line (new and improved!)
- 11 foot Travel Lane (was 13 feet)
- 13 foot Center Turn Lane
