Disappearing Bike Lanes on Kirkland Rd in Arlington

[theakston]

Nine Months later and the Kirkwood Bike lane still disappearing / unstriped. Anything I can do to follow up on this?

[Tim Kelley]

I’ll ask again.

Feel free to send inquiries or urgent phone calls of your own…

I just filled out the Residential Maintenance Report Form…we’ll see if they respond. Thanks!

I noticed that there are spots on Kirkwood without sidewalks. Ugh. It does make me less annoyed with runners in the bike lanes, but it seems very dangerous.

Engineer’s update:

“The project is in the queue to be marked, but between fresh paving and other rush projects it has had to wait. At this point it may not get done before the winter shuts down striping for the season.”

FYI–this is still in the queue to be done when the county starts marking in the spring. It got pushed back when they were focused on completing the newly paved streets and didn’t get done last season. It’s high on the priority list for when they’re able to start working again though.

Hi, Tim,

It needs more than just marking, the section of road between Lee and the new pavement is badly beat up and has longitudinal cracks running parallel with the road.

I’ll post something to their “issues” interface.
