Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 Buses in center allows for the option of center loading platforms seen in other "option B" renderings. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 If buses had doors on the left hand side, a shared loading platform could be used in the middle of the road but otherwise not much. replies

Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 I LOVE the crossing refuges near the bus platforms. It's probably also good to have bus passengers waiting away from storefronts and such, but also safely on a platform. I also like that the bus traffic seems hard to disrupt, but I assume it's also disreputable by left turns? replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 better pedestrian experience. ok bike experience overall. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 More order. Focus on mass transit. Safer sidewalks. Less crazy left turners in meridian. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 I love it. I want the bus lanes next to each other. It keeps big busses away from pedestrians. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 I love this design's center bus-only lane and the added green buffer near the sidewalk. I like the smaller amount of conflict points and the increased traffic flow from removing the option of a left turn. I like the larger bike lanes that include delineators. I also like the smaller entrance to the business from the road. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 I like the other one better but I still think this would be a big improvement over what we currently have! replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 Maybe keeping the bus lanes in the center helps them not get stuck in traffic? I'm not sure. I suppose bus lanes in the center could also be a good stepping stone towards eventual tram tracks. Not sure. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 Bikes and pedestrians are shielded from traffic. Bus gets its own lane. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 It's a definite improvement over what we have now for obvious reasons, however . . . replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 It's better than what we have currently on that stretch of road. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 The green buffer between the sidewalk and road is nice. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 I like the bus lanes being in the center of the road! I think it would make maneuvering around them easier for auto drivers, as well as help those drivers enter the many businesses and side streets down this main thoroughfare. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 I like that on the right the bike & sidewalk aren’t chopped up as much as the previous design for in/out traffic to the parking lot replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 Meets best practice standards see Institute for Transportation and Development Policy (ITDP). Best practice around the world is center lane for BRT. Also reduces costs since a center lane will require only one BRT station for both north and south traffic. Makes right turns safer. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 protected bike lanes, dedicated bus lanes, smaller driveway access, median that prevents unprotected left turns. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 I like the busses in the middle so you don't have to right turn around them replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 Fewer car lanes. Sidewalks are cleared of light poles. Bicycle lane. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 Dedicated Bicycle lanes. Fewer lanes for cars. Dedicated sidewalks without obstacles. Removal of above ground power lines. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 Bus lanes and semi protected bike lanes. Bus lanes won’t be interfered with by cars replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 This is my favorite concept for this section. The green buffer on both sides is important. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 Better than cars on the inside, I would think, particularly for accessibility to business and residential. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 I love the separated bus lanes which prevent common slowdowns from drivers and enable truly rapid bus service and encourage a mode shift to transit. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 I like how this concept enables buses to not be slowed down. Buses can move freely without being hindered by turning vehicles or parked cars. Left-turning vehicles do not cross the bus lane, enhancing safety. Passengers can rely on predictable schedules due to the lack of slowdowns and efficiency of this approach. Median bus lanes are far less confusing for drivers to reduce issues as well. replies
Online Oct 28 2024 at 10:59AM on page 1 I like the dedicated transit lanes and protected bike lanes. I like the grass buffer between sidewalks and roadway. replies
