[Winona Online Democracy]
I would like to
second what Bryon Bothun and Phil Carlson have said about bike paths,
trails etc. These are
definitely enhancements ,
as witness the success of our path around Lake Winona.
I have a little different take on the justification
for a path, probably because I see a lot of pedestrians, in one form or
another, on the street where I live.. There is a
lot of variety, all the way from trikes and strollers to the elderly using
canes
and walkers. Walking and biking are great exercises and I would like to see more
of it but it also raises some concerns
when it has to be done in the traffic lanes of a
somewhat narrow, winding street that has no sidewalks. Seems like a
path or trail would be an ideal solution. And for
those who are concerned about the aesthetics, let's not
forget,"Beauty
is in the eye of the beholder".
