are we doing for pedestrians well we’re

are we doing for pedestrians well we’re actually doing pretty well for

making progress on accessibility but for

making progress on accessibility but for bikes well we’ve got basically nothing

bikes well we’ve got basically nothing

bikes well we’ve got basically nothing and that’s a shame because a bicycle can

and that’s a shame because a bicycle can

and that’s a shame because a bicycle can be a really awesome way to get around a

be a really awesome way to get around a

be a really awesome way to get around a community or our size so what’s the

community or our size so what’s the

community or our size so what’s the problem well there are two problems

problem well there are two problems

problem well there are two problems first is that our side streets the non

first is that our side streets the non

first is that our side streets the non arterial streets the residential

arterial streets the residential

arterial streets the residential neighborhood streets they’re part of a

neighborhood streets they’re part of a

neighborhood streets they’re part of a disjointed network that makes it

disjointed network that makes it

disjointed network that makes it difficult or even impossible to cross

difficult or even impossible to cross

difficult or even impossible to cross town safely and efficiently without

town safely and efficiently without

town safely and efficiently without using the arterial streets but then the

using the arterial streets but then the

using the arterial streets but then the other problem is our arterial streets

other problem is our arterial streets

other problem is our arterial streets our high speed corridors where people

our high speed corridors where people

our high speed corridors where people are not safe riding a bike the cars are

are not safe riding a bike the cars are

are not safe riding a bike the cars are whizzing by cyclists really fast and

whizzing by cyclists really fast and

whizzing by cyclists really fast and really close so

really close so

really close so if we can slow down the cars even a

if we can slow down the cars even a

if we can slow down the cars even a little and separate the bikes from the

little and separate the bikes from the

little and separate the bikes from the cars even a little we’re going to make

cars even a little we’re going to make

cars even a little we’re going to make the streets safer for everyone but what

the streets safer for everyone but what

the streets safer for everyone but what do I mean by everyone well it turns out

do I mean by everyone well it turns out

do I mean by everyone well it turns out that a bicyclist or a pedestrian who is

that a bicyclist or a pedestrian who is

that a bicyclist or a pedestrian who is hit by a car traveling at 20 miles an

hit by a car traveling at 20 miles an

hit by a car traveling at 20 miles an hour has a 90 percent chance of

hour has a 90 percent chance of

hour has a 90 percent chance of surviving the incident on the other hand

surviving the incident on the other hand

surviving the incident on the other hand a person who’s hit by a car traveling at

a person who’s hit by a car traveling at

a person who’s hit by a car traveling at 40 miles an hour has a 90 percents of

40 miles an hour has a 90 percents of

40 miles an hour has a 90 percents of dying as a result of that car crash so

dying as a result of that car crash so

dying as a result of that car crash so if we can slow down the cars we’re going

if we can slow down the cars we’re going

if we can slow down the cars we’re going to save the lives of bicyclists and

to save the lives of bicyclists and

to save the lives of bicyclists and pedestrians but what about people in

pedestrians but what about people in

pedestrians but what about people in cars

cars

cars well slowing down cars also helps people

well slowing down cars also helps people

well slowing down cars also helps people in cars so you think about it like this

in cars so you think about it like this

in cars so you think about it like this if a car hits a tree on the side of the

if a car hits a tree on the side of the

if a car hits a tree on the side of the road and that car is going 20 miles an

road and that car is going 20 miles an

road and that car is going 20 miles an hour it’s going to suffer less damage

hour it’s going to suffer less damage

hour it’s going to suffer less damage than it would if it were going 40 miles

than it would if it were going 40 miles

than it would if it were going 40 miles an hour but even more importantly if two

an hour but even more importantly if two

an hour but even more importantly if two cars going opposite directions collide

cars going opposite directions collide

cars going opposite directions collide at 40 miles an hour the impact of their

at 40 miles an hour the impact of their

at 40 miles an hour the impact of their speed is doubled that’s an 80 mile an

speed is doubled that’s an 80 mile an

speed is doubled that’s an 80 mile an hour crash that is very dangerous for

hour crash that is very dangerous for

hour crash that is very dangerous for everyone involved and the cars are going

everyone involved and the cars are going

everyone involved and the cars are going to suffer a lot of damage and the people

to suffer a lot of damage and the people

to suffer a lot of damage and the people inside the cars are going to get injured

inside the cars are going to get injured

inside the cars are going to get injured so if we can slow down the cars we are

so if we can slow down the cars we are

so if we can slow down the cars we are going to make everyone safer not just

going to make everyone safer not just

going to make everyone safer not just like the bicyclists and pedestrians but

like the bicyclists and pedestrians but

like the bicyclists and pedestrians but here’s another fact we surprise them to

here’s another fact we surprise them to

here’s another fact we surprise them to roughly nobody people pay hardly any

roughly nobody people pay hardly any

roughly nobody people pay hardly any attention to the speed limit so if you

attention to the speed limit so if you

attention to the speed limit so if you want to slow cars down great post a new

want to slow cars down great post a new

want to slow cars down great post a new sign that tells people to drive slower

sign that tells people to drive slower

sign that tells people to drive slower but I promise you people are not going

but I promise you people are not going

but I promise you people are not going to drive much slower so what’s the

to drive much slower so what’s the

to drive much slower so what’s the solution well it’s actually pretty

solution well it’s actually pretty

solution well it’s actually pretty simple you narrow the lane width traffic

simple you narrow the lane width traffic

simple you narrow the lane width traffic engineers have known for decades the

engineers have known for decades the

engineers have known for decades the wider lanes make for faster driving the

wider lanes make for faster driving the

wider lanes make for faster driving the National Association of city

extra feet in lane width cars are gonna

extra feet in lane width cars are gonna go ten miles an hour faster isn’t that

go ten miles an hour faster isn’t that

go ten miles an hour faster isn’t that incredible three feet means 10 miles an

hour that’s a huge safety difference so if

that’s a huge safety difference so if

that’s a huge safety difference so if only there were a way to stop people in

only there were a way to stop people in

only there were a way to stop people in cars from using some portion of the

cars from using some portion of the

cars from using some portion of the street narrower the lane width and allow

street narrower the lane width and allow

street narrower the lane width and allow someone else to use it instead if only

someone else to use it instead if only

someone else to use it instead if only you could just paint a line on the

you could just paint a line on the

you could just paint a line on the street and make that happen oh look it’s

street and make that happen oh look it’s

street and make that happen oh look it’s a bike lane so they’re even safer

a bike lane so they’re even safer

a bike lane so they’re even safer options out there if you’ve got the

options out there if you’ve got the

options out there if you’ve got the money in the space to do it you can

money in the space to do it you can

money in the space to do it you can separate the cars from the bikes using
