Comment on Bikeway Functional Class by Froggie

Jumping in way late here (bear with me, I’m at sea), but I think some sort of functional classification makes sense…as long as the classification defines what the jurisdiction wants that route to do. I.e. our “commuter routes”, designed as limited access with bike commuters predominantly in mind.

What about Netherlands, Amsterdam, Denmark, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Zurich, Milan, Barcelona, or Tokyo? How do they look?

Comment on Crosswalk timing issues by Sean Hayford Oleary

Saw this posted on Facebook a while ago. Congrats! However, don’t you feel like the new guidelines are kind of a mixed blessing for timed signals? That is, for most pedestrian signals in the City of Minneapolis or St Paul, the ped signals are on a fixed timing with the green. The changes will simply mean that more time is dedicated to the the “don’t walk” cycle and less time to the “walk” cycle.

Now this wouldn’t be such an issue if our laws weren’t so out of date. The way it’s currently written, it is unlawful to enter an intersection if the upraised hand is flashing — even if the signal is equipped with a countdown, and you can be reasonably certain that you will make it across in the allotted time.

I also worry that the longer guidelines will encourage engineers to use fewer automatic signals, and more beg buttons. There were no beg buttons at all on Lyndale, but when the portion from Minnehaha Pkwy to Lake Street was reconstructed, basically every east-west crossing cycle was disabled, unless the pedestrian hits the button.

Yes, I’m sure annual membership cost varies significantly from city to city. I assume there are additional policies designed to prevent everyone from just purchasing the annual membership in the cheapest market.
