Ugh, the Western Ave cycletrack is such a clusterfuck.
That kind of track ONLY works if people understand what they are -- sure, they're great in some other countries, but here they just get turned into sidewalk. The Vassar Street one, too.
I want to be all for infrastruture, but UGH. Though the plans I've seen for Beacon look like they have a curb in between the sidewalk and the cycletrack, which might help? IDK.
