Sorry this is so late. Many meetings this week. In case you'd like to find out what's up with a few things in town, tonight's Pedestrian/Bicycle/Motor Vehicle Commission will be talking about these rather prominent plans/studies and issues.
* OVERVIEW AND DISCUSSION OF ISSUES PERTAINING TO THE NEAR WEST SIDE NEIGHBORHOODS AND UNIVERSITY AVENUE TRANSPORTATION STUDY (This is a study of issues from Segoe to Breese Terrace. I have my own opinions about the study, but for the moment I'll just leave those out.) * Approving the conceptual plan and geometry for the State Street 700 & 800 Blocks Reconstruction Project (AKA "that part of State St that everyone calls Library Mall.") Spoiler alert: Looks like the above item means that people will be able to bike legally brom Lake St to Park St on State St for the first time in almost 35 years. * Creating Section 12.167(2)(c) of the Madison General Ordinances to allow bicycles to be ridden within the redesigned State Street Mall, effective September 1, 2014 Also some smaller things that might be of interest to folks in specific areas of the city. Full agenda here, with various documents, attachments, etc. https://madison.legistar.com/View.ashx?M=A&ID=219684&GUID=AFDC4984-2F57-4B81-B887-649DF1960563 Robbie Webber Transportation Policy Analyst State Smart Transportation Initiative www.ssti.us 608-263-9984 (o) [email protected]
