Although the Madison Avenue bike lane debate has been raging for several months, the city has yet to make a decision on whether to add dedicated bike lanes or “share the road” signage.
“We continue to receive letters of support and letters of opposition. But the mayor has not made a decision on the matter yet,” said city bike and pedestrian coordinator Kyle Wagenschutz before Bike-to-Work Day last month.
Tonight (June 29th), the city will hold the first of three public meetings to discuss bike lanes and other Madison Avenue infrastructure improvements. The meeting begins at 5 p.m. at Minglewood Hall. For more info contact madisonavenue@memphistn.gov or visit the event’s Facebook page.
