Wood St is a designated bike route in Chicago's bike plan. This proposal would upgrade bike infrastructure from Chicago Ave. to Ellen St. by adding protected two-way bike lanes for a full mile on this street. Wood would be changed from two-way to one-way (northbound) to accommodate these bike lanes and preserve residential parking.

Dislike. As a biker, having Wood Street is great and it's possible to bike safely in either direction as it's not a super fast-moving road. Not being able to bike South on that street would be extremely frustrating and it's a street that's already shared nicely between bicycles and motorized vehicles.
Oops I saw that it would be two way for biking but I still think it would be worse overall.
