At the moment, the turnoff onto the Bay Bridge at Folsom and Essex is very dangerous for cyclists. Recently, a soft barrier was installed that defines the two lanes exiting right. The bike lane is set up such that cyclists have to come out of the lane into traffic to the left of the barrier. This issue is made even worse by the fact that many drivers realize very late that they don't want to be in the turn lane and must merge left. This is a very popular bike route and I think the lane markers need to be changed so there is a clear area for cyclists.
