SDOT makes guerrilla-installed protected bike lane permanent | Seattle Bike Blog
Remember when an anonymous bike safety group calling themselves “Reasonably Polite Seattleites” installed a series of plastic pylons on Cherry Street to demonstrate how easy it would be for the city to turn a regular bike lane into a protected one?
