[UC] Bike lane or what?

[Paul Grossman]

I'm curious if anyone knows what the extra 'half' lane on Chestnut street between 38th and 34th is for?  It starts at 38th street on the right side of the street with diagonal lines painted across it and then the diagonal lines disappear.  Its not wide enough for a car to drive down it comfortably and on many occasions I have witnessed near accidents because people try to use it as a lane.  Does anyone know the purpose of this 'half' lane?    -Paul   _________________________________ Paul Grossman IT Support Specialist School of Medicine Information Services University of Pennsylvania 423 Guardian Drive/ 316 Blockley Hall Philadelphia, PA 19104 215.898.7817 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
