The unfinished, controversial center bikeway on Valencia Street has caused at least two bicycle crashes in its first eight weeks.
The confusing interim period has caused issues: Jessica said she is worried about the new rubber curbs, and is scared of weaving in and out of them. And the two people who crashed last week reportedly did so because of similar confusion.
Chun said members of the public had expressed “confusion with the construction signage and placement of the ‘Bike May Use Full Lane’ sign,” but noted that cyclists are not supposed to use the center bikeway yet. “It is an abomination. It is the worst infrastructure I have ever seen anywhere in the world,” said Mikael Colville-Andersen, an urban designer and founder of the Copenhagenize Design Company. “You save lives, you keep people safe, by using tried and tested techniques.”
Claudia Adriazola-Steil, deputy director for the global urban mobility program at the World Resources Institute, said it was a “bad idea” to create such a complicated crossing and keep bikes in the center of the road, especially on an avenue with constant traffic like Valencia.
