CdA To Change 15th For Bicyclers

Item: Life in the bike lane: City of Coeur d'Alene considers major changes on 15th Street/Tom Hasslinger, Coeur d'Alene Press

More Info: Re-centering, re-striping, adding bike lanes and a traffic signal, and doing away with parking. The city of Coeur d'Alene is considering some major changes on 15th Street from Sherman Avenue to Interstate 90, including adding bicycle lanes to both sides of the street on the popular riding route. To put in the lanes, the city would re-center and re-stripe the median, which hugs closer to the west side of the street than the east on portions of the road. The change would include taking away all parking on the east side of the street in that stretch.

Question: What else would you like to see Coeur d'Alene and other Kootenai County cities do to make them more bike friendly?
