Re: [bikingroseville] Re: Washington Blvd bicycle prohibition on City Council agenda

Pascal,
 
I think the meeting went well. You can check out a video recording of the council meeting on the City's website:
 
 
Jump to item 7.29. The whole discussion lasts about 15 minutes.
 
There were no other bicycle advocates attending that I recognized.

Hi David,
How was the city meeting yesterday? anyone else was
able to make it? I think it will really help once
they update these signs. from my experience, I found
there is quite a bit more space on the right end side
lane when you are riding Northbound.
thanks,
Pascal
