Biking & Walking:

Other: The signage on the streets for the motorists that intersect with the BLine as well as the signage for the pedestrians and cyclists on the BLine aren’t consistent. I worry that an accident will occur. Cyclists, pedestrians don’t know if drivers will stop. Some do, some don’t. Attached is one photo. The rules/expectations seem to be different for each intersection. Thank you!

Responded to the resident and requested specific locations where they have observed inconsistent B-Line crossing signage so staff can determine whether further review is needed.

Thank you for reaching out about the B-Line crossings. I agree that the expectations should be clear to people using the trail and to drivers crossing it. My understanding is that at most B-Line intersections, trail users are required to stop before crossing, while drivers are required to yield to trail users who are entering or within the crossing. There are a few locations, including 7th Street and Moravec Way, where the traffic control is different and drivers are required to stop. Could you let me know which intersections you've noticed where the signs or expectations seem inconsistent? That would help me better understand what you're seeing and determine whether there are specific locations we should review. You're also welcome to send me additional photos or details, or we can talk by phone if that's easier. John Garzee Traffic Engineer [email protected] 812-349-3525
