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.

Would prefer to see two-way protected (with barriers) bike lanes on major roads before something like this is implemented. Cities like Minneapolis have done this effectively with attractive barriers that keep bikers safe and also add character to the area: https://www.minneapolismn.gov/getting-around/biking/
