Redlands with Bike Lanes! A digital mock-up...

What would a safer, more bike-friendly Redlands look like? The photos below should give you a hint! Donny and I cruised around town and took some pictures. I then "digitally striped" the lanes - just to see what it would look like.

All the photos are along the Proposed Bike Lanes the city has already approved. The roads seem wide enough to accomodate bike lanes...what do YOU think?

Leave some comments and let us know what you think!

I hope to present these to City Council in the near future...

Looks Great! That provides a nice visual cue that there is room to share the road. The only spot that looked like it could use some red curb paint is Citrus through downtown. Maybe sharrows would be better there since you don't want to put riders in the door zone with a bike lane that close to parked cars : )
