Reply to comment by ashooner in As a driver, New Jersey Ave NW has absolutely convinced me that protected bike lanes are the right decision. by sloowhand

That’s a mess 2 but those bike lanes have not improved traffic flow on K right there. Can’t stand those empty barley used bike lanes.

You do realize not all road improvement projects have to make your life, as a driver, more convenient... Right?

Sounds like you should hop on a bike, plenty of room in the bike lane.

Nah. No thanks. I’m not a biker. Not for me. Uber, walking, or my car is how I get around the area.

Would you consider them better used if they had standstill traffic like 4th street?

Bike lanes on 1 side and a mix of parking/drop off & pick up zones on the other side. That would be ideal IMO.

That makes sense, thats what happens anyway. And the north side of K when you cross over to NE is really not great because of backed up westbound car traffic.
