Lexington Center Streetscape Project

Amazing! I can't wait to use the sharrows on Mass Ave - what an improvement!
Lemme guess, the Lex bike advisory committee (who endorsed this plan) is made up of mamils?

Hell, it even manages to half-assed for pedestrians - no bumpouts at the mid-block crossing at the Town Office Building, no pedestrian refuge island, despite the median. Sure the pedestrian crossing at Petes Coffee, near Ride Studio Cafe is pretty decent for Peds, but, still not even a bike lane on Mass Ave.
No raised crossings at side streets, instead signals to alert peds of cars exiting side streets seem a mighty backwards solution. Protect people on foot by having car drivers slow down and drive safer, not the other way around.

Send this one back to the drawing board.
