In North Sunnyvale, residents express mixed feelings about new bicycle infrastructure planned for Tasman Drive. While some see hope in safer transit options, others fear increased traffic congestion. The proposal plans to narrow this busy road from two lanes to one while introducing bike lanes and improving sidewalks, leading to concerns about traffic flow. Residents, particularly from the Casa de Amigos mobile home park, face safety risks when accessing the street, emphasizing the need for a more inclusive design that accommodates everyone, particularly the underserved communities in the area.
"It's so sad that we've created our infrastructure where to get basic necessities like groceries, you have to risk your life," Feinsmith told San José Spotlight.
Ari Feinsmith noted that the proposed bike lanes would make the street safer, especially given the 40 mph speed limit and blind curves.
