City Bike Lanes

Published on 29 December 2011

By Joe Hettle:

There seems to be a lot of talk and controversy about the increase in bike lanes in the city. Bicyclists either love them or hate them. Motorists seem to pretty much hate them. The one thing for sure is there is confusion over how to use the lanes. Oh and by the way “what the heck” do all of the lines, dashes and colors mean? And I agree.

With this in mind I have gone to Jamison Hutchins from the City of Indianapolis, Planner / Office of Sustainability and ask for some guidelines. Here are his comments:

Mission Statement

To provide opportunities for bicyclists of all ages and abilities to ride their bicycles on safe, friendly, and well-organized rides; to be informed of bicycle events and related activities; to volunteer in support of CIBA and other bicycle-related organizations; and to
socialize with other bicyclists.
