I suspect that there will have to be a substantial increase in the Operating Budget to maintain the existing bike lanes, in addition to the new bike lanes that are being planned. I also suspect that having a sum sufficient is going to be a challenge in the 2011 Budget. On the other hand, "if you can't maintain 'em, don't build 'em".

I hope the Mayor and the other visitors in Europe on cycling strategies saw some bike lane maintenance equipment in use...sure, big visions of grand platinum bike plans are great...and yes our winters are tough on marking but we should be planning for that issue...it would be nice to see the lanes we have actually marked...many of them are just a nice memory...and without them, cycling safety is compromised. Safe cycling to all, Troy Thiel
