*#3, Next Generation Bikeway Design: Raised cycle tracks * Wednesday, June 26 | 2:00 -- 3:15 p.m. CDT
While many cities have relied primarily on signs and markings to radically transform their streets, a growing number of bikeways around the country have been improved and made permanent using higher cost materials, curb relocation and complex engineering. This session will look at two facilities that embody long term solutions for city streets. How can cities effectively move the curb without creating drainage problems? What "green" infrastructure solutions can be incorporated into these new bikeways? What are the highest and lowest cost alternatives to these designs?
