Bike Boxes that cost pennies
GGW has another great post about law changes to essentially turn every crosswalk into a legal bicycle box for cyclists. Sure, Portland OR has the real thing and they are beauties, but in a cash-strapped city that strives for sustainability, this is an easy way to make bike riding LEGALLY safer in cheap fashion. Consider that in Los Angeles, riding your bicycle in a crosswalk is illegal!
This idea has it all: sustainability, transportation, municipal law, cost-effectiveness & urban design.
