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.

I strongly support this proposal and know that most of my neighbors support it as well. I ride a bike with my three kids on Wood year round and I do not feel safe. A well-maintained, protected bike lane will allow more families and elderly community members to see the benefits of bike transportation in this city. I would suggest making Wolcott a two-lane road for cars to address the concerns in these comments.
