Descrizione

The bicycle lane on English Drive at the summit of East Rock has virtually disappeared, and multiple cars routinely park in it despite this being a no parking zone. This is a safety hazard as well as a nuisance. Please repaint the bicycle lane and begin enforcing the parking rules at the summit. (Preferably begin with warnings rather than tickets until people have a chance to adapt.)

I have previously [posted this as a "road markings" issue. The road people transferred it to Parks and it died. I then posted it as a Parks request, but there has been no response at all. This is a safety issue: people ride bicycles on the park road, and other people drive too quickly and/or park where they block the now-invisible bike lane.

If someone is badly injured or killed here, the city will be liable. And there is now a track record going back many months to show that the city was aware of the problem.
