Bike Commuter Asks For Support For Broadway Project

Speaking of bicyling in Spokane Valley (see below), a local bike commuter, Mark Mims, started a Facebook page in support of the Broadway safety project that would add bike lanes.

The Broadway Safety Project would extend the new lane configuration on Broadway from Pines to Park. That means the roadway would be reduced to one lane in each direction and a center turn lane and bike lanes would be added.

The Spokane Valley City Council is considering suspending or killing the project completely though, because it reduces capacity on a major arterial. Here is the Facebook page if you want to learn more about the situation.
