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.

This idea is insane on a number of levels. Residential areas do not need protected bicycle paths. It should take more than 67 votes to to get this project green lit. The thousands of people that this will affect were never notified. You will be hearing from us very shortly and very loudly. You say putting this to another vote will discount the 67 that have already voted? Let them vote again and see how democracy plays out. No one is saying they can’t vote this for around. The way you have done this is not Democratic but then again I don’t expect that from a socialist. You a public servant not a king…Don’t forget we pay your salary.
