Hennepin and 1st avenues two-way conversion leads to fewer crashes, better access

No comment.

Well, now that is interesting. I wonder how much better it would've been if they'd actually completed the plans.

I know I rode on that corridor just to make the point that bikes should be there. I guess it's a good thing that there are fewer crashes there. I'm not a fan of the bike lanes on First though. I don't like being between the cars and the curb. It's counter-intuitive to me, but then, so are left-side bike lanes. I'm looking at you Portland and Park.
