After a long battle, buffered bike lanes to be installed on one of St Louis's most used bicycle routes | SafeTGA

Headlines are quick hits from media outlets from Missouri and around the world. Follow the headline link for the full story. The source of this headline says:

I have spoken to Mayor Slay’s office and at my request, the City will be expediting the striping of Tower Grove Ave to provide for permanent buffered bike lanes between Shaw and Magnolia.

This is supported by both adjacent Neighborhoods and is consistent with our policies to make our streets safer for pedestrians, bicyclists and motorists. The new striping should occur within the next two weeks.

This quick time frame will allow this to be completed before the Kingshighway Bridge is closed and is only subject to weather conditions. Also, if there are any tweaks necessary they can be implemented before the closing of Kingshighway.
