  Thanks for the post. We will inspect this area to determine if a bike rack can be installed here and follow up with a response. Currently, we are not installing any bike racks at this time but will be doing so in the late spring/early summer of 2013.

This would be a good location for a bike rack Acknowledged

67-69 Pearl St New Haven, Connecticut - SOHU

The Pleasant St side of this property would be a great place for a bike rack. People are locking their bikes to sign posts, small trees, and gas meter pipes. I think this would be great to add here.

  I agree, Bob. But the city doesn't have a program to do that within residential areas (or encourage landlords to make requests where they are most needed, like the areas where Lisa is witnessing bike thefts).

  The city should be able to deal with the SOHO group

  I'm planning to try getting them to do so. Starting with Pearl and Pleasant. I am also going to suggest one at Clark and Orange- on any given day there are 5 or more bikes locked to the fence there. And the sign posts.

Additional bike parking needed in this area Closed

372 Elm Street New Haven, Connecticut - Dwight

One or two additional bike racks in front of Elm Bar would be greatly appreciated.

  The parking meters on this stretch of Elm St have all been retrofitted with bike racks a month ago, plus their are two existing inverted-u bike racks that had been installed last year. The amount of bike racks in this area is more than adequate to accommodate cyclists.

I am requesting the city remove the tree stump remaining from the tree that was removed earlier this year by the city. I will then plan to replace the tree.
Thank you.

Ice in bike lanes Closed

Orange St. New Haven, CT - Bishop-Hine

There remains snow and ice in the bike lanes on Orange St. This forces cyclists out into the lane if they want to remain upright. Or, if they slip they may slip into oncoming traffic, leading to injury or fatality. The lanes need clearing.

By the way, these bike lanes are already unsafe, with the risk of dooring from parked cars. Sharrows would be better.

I imagine this is all over the city, though I just saw it on Orange St. The cyclist in the bike lane was struggling to make it through safely during rush hour traffic.

  You should stay out of the bike lanes anyway, unless you want to get doored.
  
  Seriously though, the city doesn't have the funds to make every little nook and cranny safe. Use some common sense and street smarts and you'll be fine. 10 year olds in the Hill seem to be able to get around the streets without a problem, why can't college kids figure out how to do the same?

  Hi, Pringles! I think you missed the point.
  
  There's a problem on streets with bike lanes where motorists often expect cyclists to stay all the way to the right. (Cyclists should not be doing this anyway when there are cars parked there, but that's another matter.) There is no way to stay to the right of the travel lane when there is ice there. The city has the balance of encouraging good travel for all vehicles and managing public safety. If the city expects cyclists to use the bike lanes (which, they really shouldn't), they need to be cleared just the same. It's not about cyclists figuring out how to use the road, it's about preventing harassment from impatient drivers - the real problem.

Trash Open

There is starting to be more trash here every morning with the reduced clean team time.
