Description

As a bike user who commutes daily between the East End and Downtown via the Leigh Street Viaduct, the dedicated bike lanes across the bridge are extremely dangerous. Inattentive drivers frequently drive or swerve into the bike lane at high speeds, or attempt to 'speed up' to block a safe merge into the bike lane from either approach. I'm aware this is probably a low-priority concern, but if separation and slowing measures could be put in place, that would be a great improvement to safety.
