FYI:
State committee nixes plans for contra-flow bike lane on Capitol Square
http://isthmus.com/news/news/Contra-Flow-Bike-Lane-nixed/

I was at a meeting with City staff this afternoon, and they broke the news
to us that i in the story above. So when Mifflin is reconstructed this
year, we aren't getting a west-to-east bike lane.

However, the reconstruction will bee done in such a way that if the state
ever changes its mind -- maybe some more bike-friendly and more
livable-cities-oriented members of the State Capitol and Executive
Residence Board (who, strangely also control the Capitol grounds and the
one lane on the inner loop that is state property) -- a counterflow lane
could be added at a later time.
