Vista to remove bike lane barriers in some areas just months after installing them

a year ago by resipsaloquitur to c/fuckcars

In March, the city of Vista installed berms and bollards in bike lanes throughout much of the city in an effort to keep cyclists safe. Now, just a few months later, the city is removing berms and bollards in some areas.

This bullshit again, the “barriers” were folding markers and parking space bumpers. Local riders mostly disliked them since the bumpers wouldn’t stop any cars anyways and just create less control for everyone involved. If the dumbass city council did it right there wouldn’t have been an issue but they half assed it and got hate from both sides. Good riddance.
