1251 | Natalie Mason | My kids won't be using them, they will be sticking to the sidewalks! much safer |
1252 | Mason | its a waste of money and a safety concern for all drivers and bikers travelling the routes |
1253 | Andrew | I don't think enough people use them |
1254 | Gladys Weiland | Wrong city for a not bad idea! Maybe in the Netherlands?? |
1255 | Tess | |
1256 | Sherry MacDonald | Why not put surveys on the City web site - and make it easy to find them on there - before going ahead with something only a handful of people actually want??? |
1257 | Liz Sutley | Not the smartest planning. I was driving down spruce drive hill and there was a biker with a bike trailer behind him. he didn't know that "his " lane ended at the bottom of the hill. The 3 cars behind him were able to slow right down though. Good thing |
1258 | Dawn Wolff | Poor planning that will only benefit a few. More than dangerous, hazard to both biker, and car traffic. |
1259 | Ron | Reported comments by the Mayor in todays Advocate are insulting and totally out of touch with the community response to this dangerous blunder. |
1260 | Carolyn Shields | Still don't have the money to fix the potholes but let's cause some more accidents. No thought about the winter it seems |
1261 | Travis Boychuk | Slowing traffic down when it's not needed! Remove them |
1262 | alvin | who ever is responsible for this blunder should be canned is this best way council can waste our tax money i can suggest several other ways |
1263 | Ray Clark | |
1264 | Ray Clark | |
1265 | Damon Roth | Great idea
Poorly executed |
1266 | Jeff Dancey | Poorly planned. Poorly executed. Barely utilized. |
1267 | Paula W | This does not make sense and has made 40th ave dangerous for motorists and byclists. What happens when it snows in a month or two? You will not be able to navigate this road and many accidents will occur. Or have we increased the snow removal budget too? |
1268 | Sandra Clark | |
1269 | Scott Legge | VERY BAD IDEA!!! Once again Red Deer City Council is showing its near sightedness. Remember you can’t complain if you didn’t vote!!! |
1270 | Robert Boyd | At first I was totally against it but then I thought, in the winter time we would have a place to pile the snow. Time to look at the City planner.... no acess to clearview mall from N side of 30th A.Enter via community..dah |
1271 | Cam Anderson | This is a waste of time and resources in a city that has a top notch trail system and wide sidewalks on every major street for the direct routes. bikers can also use the roads as long as they abide by the laws. This will only slow traffic |
1272 | Marie Delainey | Waste of my tax money! Creates hazards for cars and bicycles! |
1273 | Bob P | .... lord, help me understand how my city council which perennially debates budget priorities/ deficits, implores me to provide them with more tax revenue, can in good conscience allocate $0.75 Million so frivolously... |
1274 | Louis Tighe | Very little thought about putting bike lanes on 40th and 55th. Creates very unsafe road conditions and removes lanes that have been there for over 50 years and the traffic far greater then ever. If new areas were planned properly then maybe. |
1275 | kristie dufault | useless |
1276 | Chuck Grote | Bike lanes need to go now!,
Put bikes back on paths or sidewalks. Make bikes adhere to a strict trail and sidewalk safety code. Plan bike trails in new areas before they are even built. Enlarge trails to accommodate walkers and riders. End lanes now!!! |
1277 | Gavin IsCute | I disagree with your actions. |
1278 | Shannon Archer | This was a total waste of money and time.Is there any thought process in the city's decisions.Terrible waste of money and the money.Glad I have an extra half hour to get home...... |
1279 | Jim Wieler | |
1280 | Loretta Wieler | |
1281 | Margaret Moroz | I find these lanes really bad in areas downtown whare traffic is piled up to 1 lane, also in areas where there is more traffic. How about licensing cylclists plus an insurance for their bike. In an acvcident who pays. |
1282 | Larry Taylor | |
1283 | W. Doggett | These lanes are unused and will be used even less in winter. When I'm stuck behind an elderly driver who wants to slow down for a green light (because it might change to red soemtime that day)I wonder, who's making these money wasting small town plans? |
1284 | donna larsen | The city has put no thought into what this will do for both drivers and cyclists |
1285 | john Bolin | get rid of them now before someone is killed or hurt |
1286 | john Bolin | get rid of them now before someone is killed or hurt |
1287 | Maurice Coene | If the City of RD can have an online survey promoting bicycle lanes [21 of 24 questions favor cyclists], why not a survey for ALL citizens. Do you favor bicycle lanes? Yes or No? Simple is it not? |
1288 | Doug Pullan | There's enough people making negative comments on this issue. If more citizens were to attend city council meetings voicing their concerns, programs like this would be avoided. The City is influenced by Public opinion: make your voice heard loud & clear. |
1289 | Henry VanderMeulen | to support one group at the cost of an other is wrong thinking. It is also dangerous. |
1290 | Connie | Waste of money for all they are used! |
1291 | Edward Good | City council have done many stupid things, but this wins the prize!! |
1292 | Val | Dangerous and not thought out. |
1293 | Sarah Derksen | |
1294 | Michelle Moore | Spend all that money on bike lanes when you can't be bothered to put in a lit crosswalk for children crossing the street to go to school on 39st. Shame on you City of Red Deer!!! |
1295 | george czerniak | why stop just with the bike lanes maybe they can also put in a trike-skate board lanes,waist of money |
1296 | george czerniak | why stop just with the bike lanes maybe they can also put in a trike-skate board lanes,waist of money |
1297 | Renata Good | Bike lanes are a step backwards - especially on 39St. |
1298 | Melinda Anderson | |
1299 | Bill Wolff | Changing busy 4 lane streets to 2 lane was not done in the interest of safety. Hard to believe we pay people to make such poorly thought out decisions all in the thought that it makes Red Deer a "green" city. |
1300 | kim mcgilvray | Total waste of time money and manpower A change this signifacant to our city streets should have been voted on by the general public. What you have done to 39th st is a crying shame. Stop this program now and change our prefectly good roads back |
