2 ..the re sterioping has made my eastbound ride also much safer, more confortable and smooth and fast witt a smoother surface and clearly delinieated green bike lane that I can get in early and stay in and it's even a bit downhill. I feel far far safer than I ever did before in fact I would never ride through the intersecftiiob eastbound it..I would always go back through behind Vons which has its own dangers.
So: riding eastbound as a cyclist through Washington on 111 - the improvements have made it feel to me as a cyclist 1000 % safer A warning: Curbs can add danger. I have seen far too many cycling injuries caused by curbs, both low and high if
cyclists miss seeing them or see them too late . There is a lot to look at and be alert to riding eastbound...I would worry that a curb would create one more hazard that could be missed and cause a really bad cyclist crash. ..I say no to curbs. Unless they are really big like planters (used by Vancouver).
