Folsom Separated Bike Lanes Are Being Installed!
This is the first time the City has used a concrete curb to provide separation between a bike lane and travel lane that are at the same grade within the street and the first curb separated bike lane facility to be constructed following the adoption of the low-stress walk and bike network plan!
Colorado Law Requires Three Feet to Pass
New highway signs in Colorado remind drivers to give 3 Feet to Pass. Colorado鈥檚 鈥淭hree-Foot鈥 law requires motorists to give people biking at least three feet of space, even if it means crossing a double yellow line to do so when the coast is clear. Thanks to advocacy by Bicycle Colorado and the help of the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), you should see new signs in 2022 on our state highways that clearly state this law and eliminate confusion with existing messaging.
