If they paint one there, it will be the only street in H-field with a bike lane. What message will that send to road users?<br /><br />PS The bikelane that occupies what was once the shoulder on King's highway between the Cooper River and Rte 70 in CH has had absolutely zero effect on that stretch of road.Screechhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15397676711365438175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227147.post-32322136493001078102014-01-10T13:57:24.775-05:002014-01-10T13:57:24.775-05:00I've had 6 accidents near my house (that I kno...I've had 6 accidents near my house (that I know of), two crashing on my front lawn destroying my property, two drunk drivers last year driving up on the sidewalk after the goodwill store who couldn't make the turn... Something has got to give here. Safety of the people who live on this street should be #1. More attention should be put on the area between goodwill and kings highway where accidents occur, just one happened this morning. people need to SLOW DOWN! k2luvshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11711392557832184561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227147.post-32419889784278682452014-01-10T11:45:01.871-05:002014-01-10T11:45:01.871-05:00Who is the best person from the County to get in t...Who is the best person from the County to get in touch with to discuss this?

I live in town and bike down that road frequently to get into Westmont/Collingswood/Haddonfield. <br /><br />Also, adding a bike lane to Grove Street and continuing the one recently built on Kings Highway would give two routes to the Haddonfield Patco station!<br /><br />I do see people park on Grove street occasionally though, I can see why they would want to keep parking available to the homes on that street.Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03178668336988380904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227147.post-44057797577747200532014-01-09T15:52:07.631-05:002014-01-09T15:52:07.631-05:00Uhhhh....

Why can't we have the median for that 200 feet and bike lanes instead of parking? No one parks on Grove is I recall (a close friend lived in town) but its been a while.<br /><br />Would the median run the whole length of Grove or just in the location between the streets mentioned?Andrew J.
