What about a protected bike lane?
The community shared their desire for a protected bike lane along the corridor. Although MoDOT can’t install a
vertical barrier along the corridor under the current agreement with the city, the department is talking with the city to
include those options along the corridor between Sarah and Broadway. Although that work won’t happen as a part of this
project, the city and MoDOT are moving toward an agreement for that in the future, as part of a separate project
What is the agreement with the city that is preventing vertical bike lane protections? I feel like it's constantly spun that MODOT is the problem organization, but here it seems like they are actually being held back. Is it possibly because the city doesn't have one of those narrow bike lane street sweepers? It's about time we pick one of those up anyways.
From what the MODOT PDFs say, it seems like they require the municipality to pay for infrastructure that they consider cosmetic and not necessary. I could be wrong though.
