The city is adding a new stretch of bike lanes to connect downtown riders to Gambles Hill and the riverfront. Construction is set to begin later this month and should wrap up by February.
Here’s where the new bike lanes will be installed.
- 2nd Street from Spring to Byrd
- Byrd Street from 2nd to 3rd
- 3rd Street from Byrd to Franklin
While working on the lanes, the Dept. of Public Works will also make street upgrades.
The new lanes should improve the city’s bike network by connecting existing bike lanes on 2nd Street south of Spring to lanes on Franklin and 3rd, closer to City Center.
