Dozens of cyclists packed the Wicker Park-Bucktown branch of the Chicago Public Library Monday night to support protected bike lanes on North Milwaukee Avenue and offer their feedback.
Known as Chicago's "Bike Highway," North Milwaukee Avenue is the busiest corridor in Chicago for cyclists, and the stretch between North Avenue and Western is a challenge because it has to accommodate not just bikes and cars, but hundreds of local businesses which don't want to lose foot traffic.
CDOT says from 2018 to 2022, more than 300 crashes happened on the stretch of North Milwaukee between North and Western, more than half of them involving cyclists."We need to get protected bike lanes," said Rebecca Resman, a neighbor. "We need to make it so less people are parking in bike lanes, because every time someone parks in a bike lane, it makes an opportunity for a crash. It makes a dangerous and unexpected situation.
"Figuring out a way to change the culture so that everyone understands that it's necessary for all of us to have access. And safe access," said Bucktown resident Alice Berry.
