Gone green: 12th Street bike lane returns



EVG regular Greg Masters reports that the city repainted the 12th Street bike lane yesterday ...



The city milled and paved the street in early May, and finally got around to putting down a fresh coat of green paint.

This eastbound bike lane arrived last November ahead of the anticipated L-train shutdown to help alleviate anticipated commute congestion.

However, after the shutdown became the slowdown, the city announced in April that the bike lanes on 12th Street and 13th Street would remain permanent.

    Toxic smelling paint. I can still smell it riding over it weeks after it's been applied.

    @12:18 good point I do wonder if it really toxic, the smell is horrible. An extreme chemical smell to it and this heat wave does not help.

    Yes the toxic smell. Alarming. Insane. Call 911. Let me yell out the window. Wait, will that kill me?

    It's paint.
