I've always thought cities with a snowy season would be great candidates for bike lanes. Bicycling drops dramatically in the winter, so the bike lanes sit mostly unused. This makes them a good place to deposit excess snow.
- selectodude 8y agoThat’s essentially how it works in Chicago.
- paulie_a 8y agoThat doesn't seem to be the case on major bike lake they get used year round
- zachwood 8y agoEver consider that cycling drops because the bike lanes are where snow is either not cleared, or is used to deposit snow from auto lanes?
- amalcon 8y agoIt still drops if snow is cleared, or if the bike lane doesn't exist in the first place. Freezing temperatures and 4PM twilight will do that.
