Day 30 of being fucking bewildered that I, a non-voting member of my city's bicycle commission, have stricter ethical laws binding me than those for judges and politicians.
It's because the politicians make the laws. And they want their judges on the bench to rule in their favor. Laws forcing judges to recuse don't help the politicians ignore the laws they find inconvenient.
If you can get the street sweeper to get the bike lane near my house I'll give you a half a can of chamois butt'r
I'm trying to secure wholly separate bike lanes, or at least flexi-posts, anything but a sharrow or a line of paint. Tbh, I dunno how that'll work with a street sweeper.
There are little sidewalk sweepers about the size of golf carts that get used by colleges, it would work perfectly for a bidirectional bike lane.
The mini sweepers work just fine in both Toronto and Montreal. Heck, in Montreal they clear the bike lanes even in the winter, often better than the roads. Additionally the local bike share is open 365 days a year now, they are equipped with studded tires between November and April.
Curious to hear about your experience.
Can you get narrower car lanes? Trying to cross an 8 lane stroad that has 12ft wide lanes in the middle of town is hellish.
I don't know if I can; it's not, well, in my lane as a bicycle/pedestrian committee member. I still show up and advocate for lane narrowing and traffic calming at the city council meetings.

Yes it is!
I fuck with this energy, let's get it done!
Start by demanding floating roundabouts and bridges for pedestrians and cyclists and let them work back to lane narrowing.
They need the small ones, that's for sure. I would work that into my plan if I were you.
Edit: disregard. I thought you meant lanes, you clearly mean sweepers
Because the rules governing you were made recently. The rules our government works off of were made by the most naive idiots 200 years ago... I can't believe they were so stupid to think that the honor system was a good idea...
