The space below the bridge will end up rather dark and ugly. Take a walk under a highway bridge to get a taste of it. If you think I exaggerate the effect due to larger size of the highway, take a walk under the monorail in Seattle. The monorail is roughly the size of the bike bridge and the space below is a place where no one wants to be.
A splendid idea otherwise though, so long as both minimal and maximum speeds are enforced.
- bobthepanda 8y agoThe monorail corridor is developed with plenty of shops and apartments. The main issue is that the road under it is so wide and unpleasant to cross, as well as slightly dangerous due to the fact that it divides a one-way road in half. But this isn't really that bad: https://www.google.com/maps/@47.614548,-122.3406401,3a,60y,134.28h,81.03t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sOWmiRJ6wPkK2MAwcEkTKyQ!2e0!7i16384!8i8192 https://www.google.com/maps/@47.614548,-122.3406401,3a,60y,1... If Fifth were two-way I would have a lot less of an issue with the monorail, though it would be nice if they added a stop in the vicinity of Denny Way.
