651 | Ty Lewis | the bike lanes are a huge waste of money and road space. maybe in another decade they will be usefull. the lanes take up too much space on already over crowded streets. please before your in to deep with the lanes take them out. |
652 | Bill Cormack | The idea of bike lanes has some merit. Losing two lanes on a four lane street is very poor traffic management. I am sure the ONE cyclist that I have seen using it is happy but the drivers losing a traffic lane are not. This needs to reviewed and corrected |
653 | Glenna Cormack | |
654 | Lanett Young | As much as I commend the city on taking the initiative to create a safer option for cyclists, it has created MUCH havoc on my family in transporting our children to school! This was a WASTE of money. What's going to happen when they are covered with snow? |
655 | Bob Francis | Single lane traffic??? $75k??? Absolutely ridiculously wrong!! I hope this doesn't introduce a new round of road rage!! Widen the sidewalks! |
656 | Laressa Jeannotte | If I were a cyclist, I would feel more safe riding on the sidewalk instead of in between two lanes of traffic. I've seen cyclists that don't even know how to use the cyclist lane. There is about 1% of Red Deerians that use those lanes. what a waste |
657 | Tila | You think bikes are safer on the road? Think of it this way: a biker crashes with a pedestrian on a SIDEWALK, Pedestrian and biker suffer a few cuts and bruises. Biker gets hit by car: broken bones and possibly death. |
658 | Karen Benjamin | |
659 | Daniel Kolton | What a bonehead move on city councils part... |
660 | Mike Pasman | Wow! Ridiculous. Waste of money big time |
661 | Even Rieghno | Waste of time. What a bone head move. Traffic is horrendous now.
Funny thing is, I bike almost daily and I don't appreciate this move. |
662 | renee ellerby | 55th street in particular is now a nightmare! |
663 | Jennifer Paradis | Waste of time, waste of money. Haven't seen anyone using them and they are causing issues with auto traffic. Get rid of them. |
664 | Jenna Lynn | |
665 | Sheri Black | I feel the money could of been spent much better somewhere else. Who approved this disaster anyways? |
666 | Alix Francis | Totally unimpressed! In the last 4 years of travelling between Bower & Michener Bend I have seen NO bikes - but now they have their own lane??? What was the thinking behind that? |
667 | niki schram | What a waste of money. It is too bad something tragic will happen before anything is done. |
668 | Christopher Friesen | Red Deer was already a complete nightmare for traffic, the bike lanes only worsen the problem. How is it good for the environment if cars spend more time idling stuck in single lane traffic? |
669 | Corissa Pols | |
670 | Jordan kelly | These lanes are rediculess! Switching lanes to avoid driving on a new bike zone that iv driven on for 7 years now? Was there nothing better you could do with the money your taking from us with your extra photo radar truck??? |
671 | Brooke Hansen | |
672 | Lil Boulding | ridiculous... |
673 | Alisha | This is was much more than 75k as someone said. I heard 800k. The most ridiculous move I have ever seen. We have so many bike trails, and it snows for 70 percent of the year!! |
674 | T erry Gallant | With Red Deer getting so big you would think we could find a way to ease the congestion on the roads this has made it so much worse and dangerous if road rage was an issue before take a look at it now and all for the handfull of people I see use it |
675 | Cindy Risling | This is a ridiculous waste of tax dollars.....a silly waste of time and money.
|
676 | Coltyn ramsdale | |
677 | D Robinson | the bike lanes on 59ave I have been counting, total of three all this time.lots of bikes on sidewalk |
678 | Julie ramsdale | |
679 | Amber Kolton | 99 people signed to get the bike lanes in this petition is 6 times the signatures to have them! Worst idea ever expectantly when we have only 4 months of summer! |
680 | mike beland | waste of money,who"s relative got the contract for this bull**** idea... |
681 | Bryan | Hey I was just out on the highway, saw 2 people riding their bikes on the shoulder,that is 2 more then I have seen using the bike lanes in town. Maybe we should "alter" the highways as well. P.S The bike lanes are a huge waste of money. |
682 | John Bringleson | yes this bike lane crap is a big load of wasted tax payer money, first the boys go re paint the road ways to have the new paint crew come back a few months later and blacken them all out, and then put the new BS bike lanes in, way to go mayor dip S#*t |
683 | Brenda Pierce | Roads aren't big enough for a bike lane and 2 lanes of traffic. Too many people don't respect the ability to drive. Somebody is going to get hurt. Waste of money as well. |
684 | Shaun Pierce | The roads are barely wide enough to handle the vehicle traffic. To cut them to one lane is in no ones best interest. |
685 | Clint Millar | HI think that having bike lanes and spending huge amounts of tax payers money is a silly idea put that money to better use like repairing pot holes instead. |
686 | Don | Did they increase the legal limit at council meetings? .25? Wtf is this? Bike lanes in a city full of awesome bike trails? Not needed, not used and never will be. New pilot program...councillors ride these bike lanes and post the time and place. |
687 | Ed Brown | |
688 | patti raincock | really.. is this the best improvement council can come up with. supose they are great until the first biker gets hit.Do they revert back to car lanes in winter? what a waste of funds.
|
689 | John Bringleson | The council and mayor in this town all need to be shot and pissed on they really are screwing up Red Deer |
690 | Shari Becker | I know Red Deer has grown a lot but I seriously do not feel that we have reached the population to expect the ??? number of bikers council is counting on. |
691 | Logan | This city has by far the dumbest bunch of ****ing retards I have ever seen, good idea to make roads smaller while red deer gets bigger retards |
692 | Krista | Some drivers are confused enough as it is, why add extra lines on the road and confuse them even more. Very unsafe for the cyclists. I checked them out again today as I was going from Taylor into West Park. I wouldn't trust someone not to run in to me if I |
693 | michael | its much harder to drive with them. |
694 | Kelsey | I like the idea of bike lanes, but this was poorly thought out and executed. If it was better planned, more specifically, if they were placed more practically and on different roads, this idea could work. |
695 | Shauna | I don't think they were the greatest use of money, If i rode my bike i'd be scarred ****less to use those lanes And causes so many traffic issues where we didn;t have one before because the lanes have gone from two to one for bikes,just friggin dumb. |
696 | Paul Melnyk | We all need to have a democratic voice in matters such as these and the Mayor and most of the city councillors have acted on a wimp of a few. Always the squeaky wheel(s) which receive all the attention. |

698 | Cory | Cannot believe the city removed lanes of traffic to add in bike lanes. 39th street is a mess as well as 55th street. Thought the goal was to improve the flow of traffic |
699 | Tyler | End this madness and fire the mayor |
