From toilet plungers for bike lanes to community gardens on vacant lots to locally sourced incremental development, citizens are finding creative ways to make urban space while bypassing traditional bureaucratic systems.
@SuiXi3D@[email protected] Agreed, we can’t solve those bigger problems without city buy-in. I think it’s all part if a cycle tho, guerilla projects get people talking, which gives a chance to convince more people, which hopefully gets those bigger projects done.
Actually bike lanes work best if 1. They are completely separate from the road or 2. The road feels narrow so cars naturally slow down. So go right ahead and spray paint bike lanes on the edges of narrow roads. I am sure that on 99 percent of US roads in town/city centers it will improve safety for cyclists, drivers and pedestrians.
