What are the chances of our fair city putting in a cone-protected bike lane on John Nolen Drive during peak bike commuting hours? According to Google Maps the detour adds 1.5 miles to the original 0.9 mile route with several additional turns and intersections. I understand that the geography is uncompromising here, but the additional mileage seems extreme for a 3-week long bike detour along a well-used path.
