I’ve been trying to draw attention to the problem of speeding drivers using the center turn lane on Lake Street after the red bus lanes were added by @MetroTransitMN and @Hennepin. How many times will the poles in the island at 34th Ave need to be replaced?
@johnkonrad As a former ski instructor I can 100% confirm this is true and it’s also the reason so many small ski town main streets are struggling. They don’t actually provide goods to the community or the tourists.
@RLaker84@mollypeonies@Mousebacon@EthanFawley 4:00 to 6:00 everyday it is far worse than ever before. Speaking of signaling though I spoke with the Metro Transit project coordinator and he didn’t think City Minneapolis has done anything to adjust the Lake/River Road Signal Timing.
@mollypeonies@Mousebacon@EthanFawley Compounded by Metro Transit / MPLS/ StP lack of coordination. Just waiting for someone to shout “just take the bus if you don’t like traffic”. 9 minute off peak drive was 35 minutes during rush hour tonight which is still 10 minutes faster than the bus non-peak.
The disaster that is the Lake Street bus lane conversion is really showing tonight after the first snow. Bumper-to-bumper from Snelling Avenue in Saint Paul to Hiawatha Ave in MPLS in both directions along with bumper-to-bumper on River Road in every direction for miles.
Anyone else noticing the huge increase in rush hour speeders through the Seward neighborhood since the Lake Street bus lanes went in? They’re all heading to River Road which is now bumper bump bumper to bumper from from Franklin to Lake Street every day.
@PhilmerPhiI Some attention to repainting the faded bike lanes and green lanes we already have elsewhere in the city besides Uptown sure would be nice.
