Oh, those troublesome bike lanes
As a current student at SDSU, I would have to agree in saying the proposal to make more lanes for cars and decrease opportunities to walk/bike/skate etc is a terrible idea! I used to drive to school every day and we all have to agree in that the congestion from auto traffic is never going to be resolved. Even with the added lanes the surrounding land does not fit the demand for its increasing users. I recently, moved near campus and now walk every day to class and sometimes bike when I'm in a rush, but I refuse to ride my bike on the street due to the high volume speeding traffic and fear biking on the sidewalk for safety reasons. Speaking from my own personal experience, the sidewalks are not wide enough to fit both pedestrians and bikers, which has caused numerous occasions where I was forced into the streets to go around. It is obvious there are countless students who walk/ bike to school; many who live in the community and many who park in nearby neighborhoods to then walk/bike just to save themselves from the paying the $162 on-campus per semester permit fee that is consistently increasing. There is no wonder why there has been a decrease in permits purchased and an increase in students finding alternative means of transportation. This community is highly impacted by the university and its students make up its majority. I am not excluding non-SDSU members, but the more these students walk/bike themselves on campus will substantially decrease the amount of traffic on the streets for everyone, so why aren't they encouraging it? The city officials who are against providing their pedestrians safer access along their roads is an act of disservice and makes me question the real motive for denying the proposal.— February 12, 2016 6:35 p.m.
