North College Way Restriped, Now Bike Friendly

College Way southbound lanes

The city, in its quest to make Seattle a little more bike friendly, restriped North College Way (the road in front of NSCC) and Meridian (what it's called north of 100th) this month.

Southbound they've eliminated one travel lane and replaced it with a bike lane and a dedicated bike lane.

Northbound they've also eliminated a travel lane but only replaced it with a bike lane south of 103rd, though parallel parking remains from 103rd to Northgate.

It's a nice start, but the lack of bike lanes on 92nd or any further north on Meridian suggests this is just low-hanging fruit for the city. It'd be nice to extend the bike lanes west on 92nd to Wallingford and down Wallingford to Green Lake -- and then further up Meridian into Haller Lake.
