"It was new and a little bit difficult to navigate and if anybody parked or ran out to get something all the traffic got stuck behind them and it was challenging," said Viktoriya Wise, SFMTA Director of Streets.
"I hope that the agency has learned a valuable lesson for the future that they should just install curbside protected bike lanes from the start than kind of proposing these novel or new designs that don't work," said Luke Bornheimer, Executive Director of Streets Forward.
"Overall, we are going to remove 79 parking and loading spaces with the change to a side running bikeway design, but we are also increasing the number of motorcycle spaces," said Paul Stanis, SFMTA Valencia Bikeway Project Manager.
"There is a bike lane running in between the sidewalk and the parklet so if the service is interrupted... there are risks for cyclists, and this needs to be addressed effectively."
