Route Name:

Broad Street Bridge
FROM Broad Street                                            28th St.                  

TO

 

Broad Street 31st St.
Preferred facility type: shared route, lane, protected lane, OR multiuse path Protected Lane

Why I want this route:

 

 

Only two north-south routes east of Rossville Ave to get over Chattanooga Creek & the railroad tracks: Market or Broad. Both are hostile to bicyclists and pedestrians. Both have enough space on the road for protected bicycle lanes.

Got comments on this person's suggestion? Love it or hate it-- add your thoughts here:

  • From scattered glass and rocks and fast food trash on the road to angry motorists that buzz you while riding, I thnk most cyclists and commuters would agree that this section of Broad St that bottlenecks at the bridge is the least ideal section when communting from St. Elmo or Lookout Mtn/Valley into Downtown Chatt. I think it is imperative to have a safer way for bicyclists to get from South Chatt into the center city.
