Hmmm - While crossing University Avenue at Farley can be a bit of a pain, I wonder if some riders might prefer doing that and riding Kendall to avoid the Highland mess.
It's been markedly more peaceful since the closure to east-bound cut-through car traffic and the bike boulevard markings were added. People heading for campus can cross back on the Ashman bridge, taking Princeton down to Old U.

The SB lanes of Highland are closed meaning there is 2-way traffic in the original NB lanes. Cyclists cannot proceed directly through the traffic island as we used to. Most have been proceeding around the north side of the island, squeezing between the island and the stopped cars, then across some gravel (fun for a road bike!) to the other side. Cars ought to have to stop further back to allow freer movement of bikes through there. Plus a little warning/detour would be nice BEFORE you get to the problem area. ________________________________ From: "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Friday, September 13, 2013 9:35 AM Subject: Re: [Bikies] Lakeshore path closure A section of the SW path was closed this morning. No warning. No detour. No problem! Obviously bikes are a superior form of transportation that are immune to such minor details.
